So having to paint the grill makes it a complete dud eh? OK you make sense.

He already said they have to edit the mounting points, which would mean they are working and have said multiple times that IT IS A DIRECT REPLACEMENT.

Read the thread as its been said several times that the grill must be a direct replacement. How could you produce something that wouldn't be? Paint options have already been mentioned by him as well so again. Yes you jumped to conclusions.

Where exactly is the "front end job"? Painting it?
