Hey guys, just wanted to know your opinions on which grille you think would look better on a black 96 S10 Blazer with composite headlights.

Chrome Grill - eBay (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/95-97-CHEVY-BLAZER-GMC-JIMMY-CHROME-ABS-GRILLE-GRILL-96_W0QQitemZ150034316850QQihZ005QQcategoryZ33645QQ rdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)

I was also thinkin bout these two grilles, either one with a billet grille insert.

Alright, thanks for giving me your opinion. I just wish someone on here had the same exact truck with the same exact grille so i could finally see how it would really look.

Unfortunately, I really don't think i can. I've only seen a phantom grille for the sealed beam type. Mine has composite headlights. It really sucks. I saw the phantom grille on eBay and it looks really good.

Bye the way, im new here, and i really need some help. Did you guys see the forum that i posted with an electrical problem. Can any of you guys read it, and tell me what you think. It is my major concern that i have with the truck right now. I would appreciate it.

I personally prefer the chrome grille with billet inserts!

Thanks a lot. I love the way that grille looks. Matter of fact, that's the same way i wanted my truck 2 look. Now im sure about which grille i want. I can get the red and black emblem, the chrome grille, and the billet insert on eBay.

why don't you just do the 98+ conversion?

Well, the way i feel about that, is that why make the truck look like it's from another year. I don't think that's right. Plus, it would cost a bit, and i wouldn't be satisfied with that. If the truck was a 98+ then i would stay with the way it looked. I never liked those conversions that they make from GMCs or Chevys to Cadillacs. I believe that the car can be modified, but it should keep it's original styling. That's just the way i feel. Don't get me wrong, i love hooking up cars, but not to that extent.

They do make Phantom Grilles for the older model Blazers I've seen them on as far back as late 80's models. You just have to know where to look. Not sure exactly what year your blazer is, but between these three they range from '91 to '97.

Well, they only make the phantom grille for the blazer with sealed beam headlights. I liked the phantom grille a lot, but my headlights are composite.
