    I'm glad you got it in one piece. I suggest you paint the inside part of the radiator area black and relocate the horns to the bottom. If you need pics or help relocating the grill just PM me.

    :D

    Yes, I sorta kinda followed that build thread but with a twist. The way you are making yours is the way I did it. I also put about 6 bolts and screws at the top (where the tabs go) and around the corners so that it would bolt down better. I also used automotive expoxy about 3 times to make sure everything would hold up.

    (Tip. I bolted down the mess to the inside part of the plastic piece, not the outter part of the grill. This IMO made it easier to work with.) :D

    So, Muy Grande, here's your grille on my truck! I cannot tell you how many people have commented positively on it! I'm ecstatic to have it on there. I had to wait to have the bull bar removed, bumper repainted and some pinstriping removed, but now it's on there! Thanks again- great looking grille!
