Paint your grille insert black...will make a big difference.
Search the appearance forum for Patman03Screw....he has some nice pics/tips on removing the insert.
I painted mine and have a couple of pics in my gallery.

You can check out www.aztrucks.com or www.truckaddons.com just to name a couple of sites. I spent about 4 or 5 days searching web sites to find the one I wanted. I didn't like the brush/grille guard combo's so......
I purchased my knock down (bolt together) grille guard from aztrucks.
Good luck with your search and post pics if you find something.
