    How come?
    And no, I don't like stickers that cause a difference in paint color over the years

    grill is great but there are some tips you might want to make sure.

    1. don't over tighten the screws. someone has reported that being to tight may have caused the oem surround near the headlights to crack due to inflexibility of the metal grille insert. I haven't run into that.

    2. the screws will bleed rust. I resolved this with backing out the screws some and getting some black rtv and gunked it up really good and screwed them back in (this was before the rubber grommets were added to the grille shipments). you can barely tell unless your up close and I prefer the rtv than the grommets.

    Great looking truck! This is exactly what I have, but I haven't derped the grill yet. It looks perfect like this. I think the BBP trucks looks nice with a little chrome accents, but the all chrome grill is too much. This convinced me to do it. Just looks awesome!

    Yea, that's why I decided to leave the chrome ring as well - it matches the chrome of the emblem and in the headlights. It wasn't too hard to do at all. Like everybody else has said, just be patient with those clips when you're disassembling.
