Just installed trx style grill on my 2021 ram 1500 big horn

man i love that color combo. more pics please :)
 
Just finished installing on my lonestar, I'm pretty happy with it, it looks like almost like a stock option 20220313_110739.jpg
 
Trying to do this install now since it’s almost 80 in NJ. Running into a few problems. I had replaced my old stock grill with this aftermarket one first and then decided to go to the route of the one this post is about and I’m having trouble figuring out how it gets bolted on. My old one has the top posts and everything and this one does not. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks guys.

On your stock grill is a backing peice that has all the mounting points, you have to pull off the stock grille front and attach the new one to the backing piece and mount it, that's what all the clip points on the new one line up with
 
Long shot but has any one here that has done this grill swap that didn't use their r a m badges willing to sell them?

I absolutely love the look of this grille. I havent purchased it yet but am seriously considering it. I decided to do a quick photoshop to see what it would look like on my setup. Before and after, yea or neah? trx.jpg
 
Was also thinking to really go custom and paint the outside surround white and leave the mesh black. No on e has that setup :cool:

That would look bada$$ and I thought about doing that to but the tape job would be a nightmare!

I want to do mine, but have already spent $1900 this month on the truck. Maybe in a couple months.
 
Anyone tried this grill on their Rebel? It says it’s not compatible but not sure what would make it not work out.
 
Quick update grille still holding up well only thing I change was I plasti dipped letters black and removed led lights since they started getting moisture inside really like it better without the lights makes look less cheap

Was there a specific reason that you decided to swap put the upper rebel grill on and not keep your original paint matched one?

I liked the Matte black upper grille better like the rebel
