Opinions needed - painting my grille

Thanks guys.
Yeah, I think the all black wouldn't look that great until I have the thing repainted. Thinking a darker blue or bright blue.
How'd you move them over?

I cut them with the die grinder, moved em over and mig welded them. I had to cut em off then put the guard on and measure how far over. You have it on the truck already so if you wanted to mark them now then take it off and move them over, just sux to take on and off.
Eh, I'm not touching it. Can't weld for **** anyway. I use the high beams about once every third month now.

looks really good AJ.
Mine is actually in worse shape than yours, the PO put snaps all over it for a cover in the winter I'm assuming.. so it has holes drilled in it every so often. My bowtie emblem is cracked too. I might eventually just replace the grille, not sure if I'm going to go billet or what yet. LMC has some nice stuff but its pricey.

Ask around. Guy on here got me a grille for Big Ugly two summers ago for like $30 when I couldn't find them anywhere else for less than $50.

I think you should remove the brush guard and send it to me, I need one for my Project Diesel Warrior. HA HA!

I really like the looks of the grille on this truck, but I'd have to order a new grille and then get the billet kit which would be some $$
Eh, faaaaar to flash. Chrome don't getcha home.
Nobody expects chrome to get them home. A well maintained rig will get home by itself, but the chrome lets it do it in style
Uhm...sure bucko.
I just hate spending money on flash parts that don't do anything.

Yeah, I know. There certainly is such a thing as too much chrome.
I'm just a little tired of hearing the "chrome don't getcha home" as the only reason to get rid of chrome. How about just a simple "I don't like chrome", lol.

I don't mind chrome.
The Blazer would look funny without the chrome bumpers. In fact, if I ever find a decent 89-91 front bumper with the trim strip I'll probably pick it up and swap it over because it'd be correct to the truck.
That said...just don't see the point in chrome doodads that don't do anything.

That black truck is too nice for me... Id end up scratching the black paint all to hell then smashing the nice grill on a tree or something.
