    Hey guys, I am currently redoing the paint and bodywork on my '53 Olds and I'm thinking of a different grille and bumper treatment. I want to eliminate the stock grille piece. Keep the upper surrond and redo the front bumper. Anyone have any experience on this? The way the grille piece is held in there the bumper has two indentions in it and also a license plate holder insert. So using the stock bumper would take some work. So what fits? '53-'54 Chevy maybe? I attached a pic of the front of the car for reference. Any and all pics and details would be great. Thanks!

    Put some lights in the ovals in the grill and call it good. I love 53 Olds grills though.
