    How was the install? Did you follow the steps pretty closely? Was the hood latch and horn in the way?

    We need details! But.... Mostly we need more PICTURES!!!

    Not a problem. Maybe we'll get some feedback from the other installs by then.

    Install was really easy and yes I followed Craigs steps. Just used a dremal. Horn and latch were not in the way, all though I will be moving the horns just so you can't see them.

    Awesome! I plan on moving the horns but wanted to leave the latch as is. I agree, as many pictures as possible would be awesome! Maybe one from a zoomed out view. You're install looks good!

    New grill fully installed. Moved the horns didn't have to cut the latch. Install was fairly simple except I was tired so I kept braking cutting wheels on my dremel :mad:.

    Final Result

    Damn, your wife has the coolest grill in town! Great pics!

    Are you guys painting the bezel after sanding smooth or is that unnecessary?
