Thanks again,

Could not find it Jim, sorry,
Like I said, it was a hassle to install. Once I realized the little bolts were not going to work without removing the whole facia
I looked at different ways and ended up installing it with three sheet metal screws (S.S.) That worked GREAT did not loosen up at all.
I had it on for over a year. Then I gave my stock grille to a friend who had it chrome plated. (a spray process) I really liked that, BUT over
time it turned to a gold tint. That I did not like. Next I bought one from DTMenance that he painted and added chrome strips over the
painted silver parts. Nice work. So you see it is a labor of love. I left the lower Billet Grilles on the car. I will send you pictures of the other two
grilles. To your e-mail. I can change back to the Billet at a future time if I want to, pIece of cake. But I probably won't. I like what I have now.
Bill T.
