Hi All

Here is an interesting 'update'. The front bumper looks a little too large
but the grill look well done from a distance.

Why wouldn't they have used a GMC grill?

Yea, but it must take two of them. Notice the extra panels between the grill and the headlamps on the TZE.

That looks very good.
It brings the coach up to date.

I like it too. It fills up that empty space and definitely brings the coach into at least the 90's...

When you get it, please post better photos of the grille and bumper combo. I like the up-dated look, and the link to Grilles on the web shows that they are available and inexpensive.

While I was driving back from GMCMI today I was looking at Chevy/GMC trucks
from the front. I thought to might do a mockup (illustration) to see how it
would look. I thought that the only problem would be stretching the width.
Shucks, it looks like someone has already done it.

Agree -- the bumper is a bit overpowering. Pull it back and it would go
well. Otherwise, it looks like a severe case of witch's jaw.

Wow -- that price is way low. I wonder what's wrong with the coach?

That is a sharp upgrade. I've seen them both ways and both have eye appeal.
