I'm trading my '13 2 bar grill for someone elses '12 6 bar grill in about a week. Is it a fair trade? will both fit after the trade? should there be any cash difference?

No difference in fitment and the 12 6 bar are more desirable so take it while you can.

Are you swapping grill surrounds too? I'm pretty sure a 2012 grill won't fit in a 2013 grill surround.

If you're swapping out the whole grill, yes. If you're swapping out the insert of the grill itself I don't believe so.

Hopefully both trucks are the same colour. Because you will have to swap the surround too.

They will switch with no problem, the 6 bar looks so much better too! I would certainly do it.

Well mines a red truck and his is the blue flame but its only the chrome pieces that were trading. Yeah I don't like like the 2 bar. Much rather have the 6. He was just worried that it wouldn't fit.
