Default Replacing Grill on a 2000 Blazer LT

I have a 2000 Blazer LT. I am looking to pretty much replace my entire front grill back to factory...mine is cracking and some parts are broken so it does not look very nice. Where would I look to buy all the parts, and how difficult is it to replace?

Thanks!

If it's just the grill, it's really easy to replace. There's no bolts securing it in place, just a bunch of clips (8 or so of them). You can pull the grill off very easily. I think LMCtruck.com carries new grills. Otherwise, there's always your local junk yard.

Check out eBay, specifically a seller by the name of s10warehouse. He might even have one in the color you need. Send him a message through eBay. I have had good experiences buying things from him and have messaged him a few times for things I did not see up and he found them and offered an excellent price.

Thanks guys, do the headlights or anything need to be removed to take it off?

I have had good luck with "LMC truck". No, you do not need to remove the headlights but it may make things a bit easier. They are easily removed with 2 clips in the rear.

One thing to watch for when you're pulling the grill. The headlights don't need to be removed, but the turn signal lights come off with it. You'll have to be careful not to pull it too far out so you can pull the bulbs and wiring assemblies from the light housing to fully remove the grill.

Thanks guys, I'll give it a try tonight and let you know if I have any more questions. So is that going to pretty much removing everything other than the headlights?

Thanks
