What do you think of my Phantom Grille. PICS
Tell me what you think whether you like it or absolutely hate it. I just want to know. Won't bother me if you don't like it.

That is one kick arse truck you have. Grill just sets off the rest of the truck IMHO

I like the looks of it.
I thought about putting one on mine but I've heard that it's a pain to get the hood open. I guess it would be easier to mod the hood latch than it would be to change the whole front clip to a 67-68......hmmmmmmm? Why'd you have to post those pics?!?! Now I don't know what I want to do.....again?

I think that looks cool, maybe it just needs a little somethign more, or less, can't put my finger on it, but somethings just a little not right in my mind, still looks cool!

you have a VERY sweet looking truck, i hope you don't take this the wrong way but i think the other grill looked better, the phantom just seems like its missing something, anybody else feel this way?

If you see the gap above the top billet bar and the grille shell, I can fit my fingers in there to open the hood. Or else you have to make a rod to open it from under the bumper.

Don't know, but doesn't do a thing for me. Reminds me of a picture of a face I saw one time that someone had morphed the eyes off of, just smooth skin. On the one hand, definitely looks sweet, on the other it lost it's character. Ask me tomorrow and I'll like it..

I like the grille but the bow tie needs to go to smooth it out.

I'm not huge on phantom grills. Part of the huge draw for me with these trucks are the original grills. I don't see the point in messing with them. But, even if I don't like that sort of thing it looks like you've put some good work into it, so I gave it an "ok".

Glad to see that people like it. I got the grille from RON WOODGEARD. I traded him a billet grille for the Phantom Grille. They run around $350 new. There are extensive modifications that you have to do though. Somebody asked about the drop. It has 3" drop coils(going lower next year though) and a flip kit in the back. Torque Thrust II wheels. I put the bow tie on to break up all the open area. I will take it off and post a pic and see if it looks better. I like it with the bow tie. Another thing I might possibly do is put an aluminum bar all the way across the center of the grille. Maybe though. I like how it looks now.
