Exactly what I was thinking. PFYC.com has oval mesh grilles in chrome for 'Balts, but the fit looks questionable in their photos. The Avalanche metal mesh grilles would be a great look IMO.

Are you talking about a mesh grill or the plastic grill that comes on the SS/TC? Cause if you just want a mesh grill, go to Home Depot and pick up some gutter guard. Just search "custom mesh grille" on here and you should find a how to. It's a pretty nice mesh and will fit both grilles. Only difficulty is attaching the mesh to the stock plastic grille surround. I ended up using a combination of hot glue and liquid nails, but it's still not perfect. Although I think my grille looks better than the SS/TC's, I don't think it was worth the trouble.

GM currently has the clips for the lower grille on back order. I have a couple of orders out there, I will ship as soon as I receive the clips.

I've heard the clips are on back order. As long as what you use holds the grille in place -- the grille by itself will not stay in the fascia opening. It is not like the original SS/NA grille, as it does not snap into place nor are there any plastic self locking clips along the edging.
