Nobody has them at the moment, as far as i've been aware of.
I'll do a custom set for myself sometime this year i think.

i would love to do my front grilles, but it would annoy me knowing the backs are still plastic...

not only that, but i think it would really look sweet.

Most of the aftermarket grills I have found are where you remove the factory plastic if you look on ebay you can find plenty of full kits that replace the plastic.

oh my bad lol I thought you were talking about the plastic in the front lol like a bolt over grill, I have not seen any for the rear but you could just pull them off and paint the to match your car.

I'm probably either going to do that or make a mesh grill for the front and back you can buy polished mesh from pepboys that would work perfectly.

another suggestion would be to buy a cheap billet grill off of ebay for somethin like a silverado 07-08 new body style and cut it to fit. all you would need is the bumper grill for that model truck. i think you can get it for around 50 shipped or less

Which is exactly what i am doing. Just the aluminum welding is a bit tricky...

I just put in the front billets and they look awesome. I have been searching everywhere for the rear and it looks like you need to custom make them or buy something close and cut to fit. I've had no luck...
