    Yeah - maybe I should go that route....the one above is paint-to-match. Certifit has a paint to match for 00-06 Suburban or Tahoe for $29.75 ("Shop Price") or $38.68 ("List Price"). That is the one that I want, correct - 00-06 Tahoe?

    Have you seen it in person? Sometimes the black on the plastic grilles fade to a light black. You really need to see it in person and look to see if it can be polished back to its original luster... But $80 is a heck of a deal!

    Another thing you should consider is the fact that you have a 9 year old paint job. Getting a freshly painted factory grille would be nice (and more $$$), but you should try and buy a nice, used grille so it will match the truck as best as possible...

    Looks like your bowtie is backwards too.

    Just kidding - I know it's probably reversed from Photoshop or something...
