So we all know about the infamous 83-84 GMC grill and no one remakes them. So after searching I was able to find a single headlight 84 grill, didn't know the difference until I got it home. So instead of searching for the one I needed I made what I needed with what I got.

That looks like it will work. I just got an '82 High Sierra single headlamp. The grille is rough but I'm gonna give it the TLC.

I like the GMC grills and badges so much better. Is tempting to swap mine out - but rebadging my Scottsdale as a Silverado is cobb enough. :pimp:

Nice work! I also have a single headlight grille converted into a dual on my truck, but it's an aftermarket Chevy grille

It looks great, just like the ones you can buy from LMC and others. Well done.

Found the pictures of the backside of mine, same idea. I traded a buddy another grille for this one, I didn't actually do it. I've got my OE grille, but it's cracked in a few spots so I'll run this until I restore mine.
