70-72 billet grill inserts on LMC

Post by dotcentral »

Anyone else seen these? Anyone bought them? I have a 71 grill, 70 grill shell and a 69 Ranger grille, and have been trying to decide which one to use. The LMC billet insert is something like 15 thin horizontal bars. I wish there was a few less of them and maybe a little wider. I could cough up the 200 for it and try it in the 70 shell I have.

Don't know, maybe it's been discussed on here before and I missed it. They are pictured on the cover and page 55 of the 2007 winter catalog. With clear turn signal/side marker lenses.

I really like the look of those, and if memory serves (Not usually) a member in here from Texas has those on his bump.

I want one.

I also like the clear lenses, but don't think they'd go good with the amber reflectors on the hood emblems.
