So I have read the posts about the billit grill covers for the intercooler. I am on ebay about to order but the cheapest one is $62 (black). Is this too expensive? any other suggestions? and this will be the 3rd item purchased for my toy.... and counting....

That seems to be th going rate from what I have been seeing on forums and Amazon..Unless your handy with a welder or know someone who is that would be a cheaper more custom alternative..

thanks Punisher. Being reassured before spending money is always better than 20/20 hindsight...

 

[Eco_Punisher]

This is true.. Yea Im sure there are some deals out there that if you looked and searched long enough you would find but to save $5-10 bucks I'd rather get it bought and on the truck call it a day..

 

[IownandsellEB]

I went with this one

 

[Eco_Punisher]

I haven't choose mine yet..I'm thinking a whole new grill is in order so I don't want to commit to the ic grill until I get the bigger one...

 

[IownandsellEB]

Yeah I hear that Pun. I just felt that if its for "protection" I could go ahead and justify the purchase. And since its black like my truck I figured it would blend in no matter what. And if I swap the grill, I'm going black. It's already chrome and I don't feel that chrome for chrome would be money well spent. So, it's started.... I set appointment for window tint tomorrow. Lights and sound system is next!!!!......

Go to eBay and type in putco ecoboost. The cost is $55.95. Its stainless and takes about ten minutes to install.

Yeah - me too. $42CAD + shipping to Canada (doubled the cost! Not the vendor's fault tho' - damned customs!) great product, excellent service, simple install.

hey you guys who already have the intercooler guard on your truck, have you noticed loss power/air flow/ gas mileage??? just wondering...

 

[Wldor]

Zero difference in fuel economy here (whether towing or otherwise)... More importantly, no stones through the intercooler either.

Oh, and the truck went in for its 16k KM service last week too... Only comment from the service tech: "Nice grille"

 

[Mike Tritle]

Nope, not a bit.

 

[IownandsellEB]

inner cooler

I bought mine at amazon and was very pleased with it, very sharp looking

 

[BlakeHallTexas]

Got a Grillcraft. These come in polished and a rubberized coating that is black. Almost transparent from a distance.

Where did you find that one? I've looked all over ebay with no luck.

I was going to go a build it yourself expanded metal, but sometimes time just don't allow for everything you want to get done. So I went with an Amazon grill. Easy install, under 40 dollars delivered to the door and more important instant protection to the cooler and whats behind it.
