Chevrolet SS Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 I have an 03 SSS and Im pretttty sure the anwser is you have to swap the hood as well. But I can get a pretty sweet deal (free) on the newer style grill 06ish style. But my question is will it just bolt(clip) on? or do I have to change the hood aswell?

AdioSS Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 what Pimp said Does the hood latch need to be changed as well? I've got an orange 05 Silverado with a billet grille. The sides of the grille are black. I have access to the entire front sheetmetal of a black 06 Silverado (they put an Escalade front on the truck.) I'm wondering if there is any way that I could use the 06 hood on my truck without completely changing to the 06 grille. I would like to get rid of the chrome bar, but I don't really like the chrome grilles that the 06 has. I do like the bodycolor between the headlights and turn signals though. Someday I plan on changing the front bumper to something without the chrome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easiest solution is just do the full swap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12'SROCK Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 you can't just do the grill you have to do the grille and hood from an 06' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
