there was a company a while back who made them for the older body style trucks.

I've heard of members cutting up a honeycomb grill to make it fit in the lower grill area. I've searched around before but couldn't find the lower grill honeycomb style for my 06.

If you do find it make sure to let us know though! I'd love to get one!

If you have a 2006 with the newer bumper style, you can forget about a bumper grille...they changed the bumper and the bracket on the 04/05 bumper that was useful for installing a bumper grille is no longer there on the 06-08 trucks.

--Looked at the pictures in your profile, and you DO have the newer bumper style... The older bumper style, the plastic lip covered the metal over the opening, where the newer one, there is a strip of metal clearly visible all the way around the opening.
