Im going to make a build thread for it eventually (april 27th) Yeah i was thinking that too but to me it definitely seemed more of an X-Runner thing.:rolleyes: and your reason as well i didnt want to do, drilling in your grille, so many things could go wrong. :eek:

    You are far more man than I- I drill a pair of small holes thru the plastic backer and used extra long bolts to attach the billet to the hood.

    How did it all go together??

    Well you know what else we could have done? If you have the same type grill like mine, all we had to do was get bigger screws that would fill the scoop screen holes.:eek: I thought about that last night but I said screw it! Someone is going to have to take it apart sooner or later, might as well be me!!!;) But if anyone asks me again about the installation, I am going to tell them to try bigger screws first, that way they don't have to take anything apart! Just screw in and screw out. I'm thinking grabbers would do the trick.
