What kind of grill is this?

[chubble]

mostly seen on round eyes. Anyone know where I could get one for a 87?

Commonly called a tube grille. You could check LMC or J.C. Whitney.

Look into getting one made from aluminun or stainless steel. Chrome grills look like crap after a few years when the rust starts taking over.

The one i have was orignially chrome, flaked bad by the time i put it on my truck, Now its black.

Thanks for the info guys. I haven't found anywhere that has one for an 87 yet. just 88-93. Anybody know if the dimensions are similar enough to make it work?

1988-93 is way different. That would fit my truck.

if its got round bars, its called a tube grille. they also came in square tube as well. the square ones are called "stull" grilles

Those tube grills look good for a while, I would get a billet grille with the bars close together. It will look better for longer in my opinion.

x2 on the aluminum. I just bought mine from LMC for $169. Its the one with 4mm bars

I just like the way the thicker bars look and I think it would make my push bar on the front of my truck stand out better than my painted black grill I have now

I agree. For some reason the billet grilles just don't look right to me. I think it's just too big of an area.

i prefer the billet grille personally. it seems to have a cleaner look. http://www.gmsquarebody.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=16382&stc=1&d=1389896213

I'll agree they look good on a round eye, but they just don't look quite right on an 81-87. But then again I prefer a factory grille over a tube grille too.

I was thinking that a grill like that on my 87 with a black bowtie would look badass!
