I am looking for a friend for a Bentley style wire mesh full replacement grill for an 08 GMC 3500 HD with no provisions for an emblem. Any out there?
He prefers a full replacement but if it does not exist then a lay over will have to do.
Thanks,
Brent.

The RBP one is probably the one he's going to want, just tell him to bring his vaseline cause he's about to get RAPED!

Here ya go. JBM has them. The logo is an added option. Otherwise it is all diamond cut wire mesh. http://www.sporttrucking.com/mistore/productdisplay.php?sku=999163&dealer=no&company_id=101198

...and you don't need as much Vaseline as with the RBP version
I appreciate the info and the links. RBP is smoking crack if they thinkm their crap is worht that much $$$. I like the way they look though (with the big star removed)
Anyways, I'm assuming the Putco is a lay-over type grille....Does anyone ,make a full replacement stlye? I heard that even the RBP ones are lay-overs ???
Thanks,
Brent.

I called RBP about a grille for mine a few months ago, They told me around $1000. I got really quiet on the phone since I was in shock, he went on to let me know that all the grilles are "hand made"...
Still not worth it to me and Im not sure I believe him about the hand made part. Maybe hand made in China...
the mesh from trex-billet is nice. I used that one and painted it black.

that is for sure you could buy putco, a spare grill just in case and a case of beer and still not get to the price of the RBP..... well I guess they are really proud of their products.

what do the putco liquid mesh grilles go for?
oh ya, trex-billet makes the RBP grille. So why not order the trex-billet mesh grille? It is a hell of a lot cheaper.
