Mesh Grill
Been thinking about getting this:

Darn cheap and looks easy to install. Comments?

Hmm...not my type of thing. Cheap would be the key word there. Not sure if this would be any type of quality product.
This line here is what I don't like:
It's held on OVER the stock grille with wire ties. It doesn't seem like it would be easy to make look good...IMO. But for 24$ I guess it's worth a try. I just don't like the way they describe it..that's all. lol
This line here is what I don't like:
The mesh grille insert will attach straight on top of your factory grille using the provided wire ties. The mesh is a chrome 'like' mesh because it is not true chrome but is resembles it because of the shinny finish.

Yeah, they make it seem like it goes over but in the picture(s) it looks like under because picture #2 isn't cut and picture #1 is.
I just need something on the front. xD All the custom stuff is on the back end.

If you must have something on the front..then take the time and save up for a proper billet grille and actually put the effort into making it look good. Don't just slap a piece of 25$ mesh on the front thinking it will look good.
But again, maybe I'm jumping the gun. It might be nice to see how it installs and maybe it will actually look good once I see it in some more pictures...

I've seen some billet grills for the blazer and they aren't to visible. And the whole grill replacement looks pretty bad (reference)
Might get it. Don't like it I can remove it. And yeah I'd upload pictures

That reference you gave looks like someone took an old school caprice grille and slapped it on an S10 lol. Not exactly what I was thinking...
This is more what I was thinking:
Something like that...without covering the headlights. They really clean up the front end IMO

I really like that look, but I don't know if it would be road legal or not
