    It sticks to the inside of your trashcan real well. do that and then go buy the max seal. the stock piece is silicone and nothing sticks to it

    Can you post a pic of the max seal installed please. Don't want to butcher it. Also, I have a whistle from not having any weather strip.

    i think theres some back in this thread? its just a peel n stick that gets put right on the top edge of the grille, so the hood squishes it a bit and makes the seal

    We'd need to get 50 people interested. But shit, they'd be paying like $20 for a grill instead of over $100.

    $20 is worth the risk, for me. lols. I still might even take the risk on eBay and snag one, color-match it, and see how she looks.

    Yeah I'd be in for one under 50 bucks. If it sucks no big deal for that price.

    I'd love to get one of those grilles. Only thing that i think would be an issue is trying to ship em out to everyone that would like one. So maybe 30 for grille + shipping and also whatever shipping would be from China to USA.
