there's usually some APC (A Piece of Crap) bulbs on ebay that are chrome and light up orange, or no-name ones as well (probably just as good/bad quality as APC ones, if they arent actually APC)

but i perfer Sylvania Silverstar corner bulbs. look kinda iridescent when off, not very noticible at all, then light up super bright orange when on. 100% DOT Legal

here's a few pics of mine (before i got my SYlvania Xenarc HID headlights)

can barely notice the bulb when off

and lights up brighter than stock when on, at least i think

Yup, those Sylvania's are the ones I have on my HD and L. They kinda have a slight blue look to them, but shine bright orange when lit.

So since it has been that long, how has your lower grille made from that stuff held up thus far That way I'll know if it is really worth doing, cos if I have to fix it 3 times a year due to coming off, tearing, wearing, fading, etc. I'd rather just buy a J-Jent lower grille...

Thanks!

Laura,
i have mine done too and its looks great, havent had a problem yet with wearing or chips... and i have had it almost a year.

[Venom]

mine still looks the same as it did the day I put it on back then, no replacement, no special maintenance or anything.
I personally think it looks better than the J-J Ent grill if you just install the J-J out of the box like they intend for it to be installed.
Unless you make custom brackets, remove the stock plastic grill and paint the verticals in the J-J Ent grill, it sticks out through the hole and looks kind of funny.
If you do the paint/fab brackets and stuff the JJ looks fine though.

totally agree venom... If I hadnt gotten a steal on my j-jent, I would still have this mod on my truck...

Mine has been on since 01/04 and no problems to report at all. I have had quite a few compliments too.
