This is the closest one I've found. I've wanted one of these since I got my truck but I can't seem to pry my wallet open for the $200.00........ I think Summit Racing carries them too and it's probably cheaper there......

I thought Geno's Garage sold them. They called it the "sweet tooth grille" or something to that effect. You could give them a call if you don't see it on the site.

Mr T,
www.iowa80.com sells 'em for the big rigs, but I don't know where you could get something similar for our trucks.

Can't recall ever seeing any teeth on the south end of anything traveling North I can think of lots of things to put on the rear end, teeth ain't one of them

You could probably get a good sheet metal shop with a good plasmark cutter to make you some from stainless steel. Sometimes they have scrap material when they do commercial kitchen renovations.

hey Top,

A nice wide angle shot of Hoss doin' da moon might take up the entire width of our tailgates..... Myabe you could get him to pose, let Jack use his new camera, and sell em in the On-line Store!!!!!!!!

On second thought, I back my truck into the barn every night and would have to "See" Hoss every morning when I load up for work.......Houston rush hour makes me wanna puke enough without that visual 1st thing every day....

Thats funny, The trucking company I work for made all of their drivers take those off the front since there was too many complaints from elderly drivers being too intimidated!!!
