Default Billet Grille for GX470

Ordered a Billet Grille for my GX470. Should arrive in 4 to 6 weeks. I'll post a picture when I get it.

A billit grille looks like the one (scroll up) above. It appears that the one they gave me is the wrong grille, see below. However, what they gave me looks like the one in the catalog. I have a feeling that they won't have one for the GX, after all. Time will tell.

I'm going to try it again. I just ordered a Billet Grille for a GX470 from AIM Industries in Mesa, AZ.

I will post picture after I install it.

I really like the Blizzard Pearl color of your GX! Can you get the dark grey (charcoal) colored interior with it?

Hi Dave.....

It was very easy to take the old grill out.

Unfortunately, the new grille is a little too big. They need a GX hood to check and see if it fits OK before they send the grille out. I will be calling them Monday and arrange to have the grille returned.
