What's up everyone! I have an 08 White Tahoe and my wife keeps telling me to add a new grille on which I agree but I have been lazy and am finally working on doing some mods. Currently have 22s on it and HIDs that's it and will add bowtie's, exhaust and CAI. I was looking for an opinion on what grilles everyone is into I previously had a speed grille on my 04 tahoe which I liked alot here is a link to a NBS with a speed grille (same company I got my original one). Should I stick with the mesh or go billet and of course the Factory LTZ Chrome grille is an option too, missed out on that option as I got the LT3 tahoe?

Speed Grille - Available in Chrome, Black Chrome, Stain

I like the speed grille but I think with the speed grille the chrome grille trim needs to be color matched.

Wait, your wife is telling you to mod?!?! You better hold on to her. I always get "what's wrong with the way it is?" from mine. Ha Ha!

I personally would choose billet... but also get a billet bowtie (or colormatch the factory one).

Welcome to the forum BTW! :cheers:

The speed grille is dope, but partly due to the SS front bumper.

Thanks everyone for all your responses and thanks for the Welcomes, I was happy to come across this forum and love a lot of the mods everyone has done. Chrome Speed was what I was leaning towards but I guess I have to see what bowtie I go with in the front; billet or colormatch like iwaslowr mentioned. My last tahoe I had a chrome bowtie so it worked out perfect with the chrome speed grille. I'll post pics as soon as get it done!

@LuSe4: Ya she has been bugging me about it, and when I got the Tahoe she was all for getting wheels stat I was surpised myself but I didn't complain.

Anything but that billet! I like the Mesh, i've always loved mesh grills like that but they are too expensive for my liking.
