Re: Grill swap pre to 08
The '08 grille switches out with no problems as long as you switch both the main grille and the lower black plastic grille portion. I had to cut a small section off the sides of the lower piece to allow room for the grille guard to mount but it can't be seen once mounted.

WOW it looks good...Glad it worked....Now I'm looking into this now...

Ok any of you guys that are switching out that might want to sell me their OLD grille for CHEAP, cheap being the operative word because I am fully expecting to ruin it, i'm looking for one. I am going to try sanding it down and painting it either black or body color....so let me know guys. Thanks! Ron

Sorry to bring up an old thread but to verify you CANNOT use the older LOWER GRILL with an 08 UPPER GRILL??

Is this correct???

I think the new grilles are ugly the way they have the HUMMER emblem below. It just doesn't look right...IMO.

But as long as you guys like it, cool. I just like the old way the emblem sets on there.

There's an 08 one on eBay so that's why I was wondering!!

I agree. I like the original style.
