Send me pms to ask about install it was not what I thought it would be!!

Also the grill has changed from original...you need to ask questions when ordering...different people running the show now!!

I ordered right away when available...I believe I am one of the last ones on the first original order, I think he bent over backwards to get them out.
I do know that because of quality concerns and other reasons that are none of my business the whole deal fell apart...so I am one of the first/last people to come out of that deal with grills.
To be honest I have had mine for quite awhile and just not installed them.
PM me with your home e- or a phone number and I will talk about the grills in detail.
I will say this the car looks way better to me in person and others in the last 10 hours the car has been out!

This is the grill I was originally providing. It is still available from another source. There is a detailed history of this grill on the Forum.
RIOT, grills look great!

To send a PM simply click on the users screen name that you want to contact and then click on "send a private message".

Hey RIOT, its easy to misinterpret a meaning in cyberland.
We had a chance to converse, and iron things out.
Gary says you are a good guy, that's good enough for me.
No hard feelings here moving on.

Cheers!

Does it contacts any painted body of the car? I was planning to get one, but worry if it will scratch the surface of the car around it.

Go to Punkins gallery. He has a 3/4 view of his car with that grill and it looks real nice.

Yes it rubs have about 100 miles on the car since install...I will check next time I wash it for signs of abuse...lowers are more secure no rubbing issues there.
But might on the upper...I thought of that when installing but for where it is you won't see it it with out the hood up I think...I will post later...

The top is connected with two bars that connect to the original grill screws. The bottom is held against the body with two springs, so I'm sure it will not be pretty if removed. The lowers require drilling four holes on each side for mounting, so they are never coming off.
Mine makes some wind noise between 40 and 60 mph. It is not offensive, but a noticeable ringing noise.

Did you take your old lower grills out?
Hasn't been warm enough here for the top down to hear any noise.
