its really not hard at all... there are two screws holding a black piece that secures the top of your original grille. unscrew that and there are two rubber squarish pieces on the far right and left sides that need to be taken off to free the grille. i haven't taken mine off in a while... but i remember it not being so bad.

post pics!

One clip on each side L+R , you just slide them out , 1 clip on the bottom and two clips on top , if you take the screws out on top that's fine, not really necessary. Post pics!

my apologies for the crappy pics, i really should invest on a canon dslr. i have a long ride tomorrow and i feel like sporting the new grill. anyway, i couldn't wait to install the grill so i got off early from work today. for anyone else doing this install, have plenty of light as you work on this.

i'm pretty happy on how this turned out, the install was pretty easy . just make sure you dont drop the plastic screws when putting back on. oh well, big thanks to mk for stick handling this group buy.





poll: should i paint the top polished slat/rung to match the whole grill OR leave the top chrome alone? hmm....i'm leaning more on the all flat black scheme. what do you think?

i'm up for a much needed cut polish on monday and i might have sometime to paint the top rung and give the whole grill another coat.

looks good! flat black looks better than i thought

i'm glad you received everything alright...

i'm planning on leaving my top slat chrome... but maybe i'll paint it if i can find a replacement part from a junkyard in case i ever want to change back.

Ebargados , if you are going to go with flat black.. i'll tint the sidemarkers, it looks out of place.
