    Sweet! I would just be worried about protecting the sensor from bugs and rocks and like, mounting it in an unprotected area like that... Expensive part to keep unprotected...

    I had planned on sending you money this weekend, but I forgot that our dollar is garbage compared to yours.

    I still want one, but I'm going to save for another two weeks here.

    I'm open to doing another one but it seems like a decent amount of members are okay with just paying the extra $20 and not wait lol.

    Here's one where the owner just painted over the chrome trim piece with some black plasti-dip.

    Finally got around to getting pictures of the grille lol.

    I drilled holes in mine, so the middle of the emblem has a bolt going through. The two ends pop in with enough resistance to keep them secure to the grille. Also the chrome had to go. It got painted with some truck bed liner.

    Looks great, that bedliner looks like a pretty good match.

    That is one good looking grill. Would like to see that center letter part reduced so one can put the badge on instead. But, I doubt the seller would re-tool for a loner like me.

    I don't think I've had anyone put the badge on it yet, but hey it is a "customizable" grille, you can always try it out.

    Maybe a member on here could photoshop it on to see how it would look.

    If you're looking for a simple good looking grille look no more.

    And I have decals for the badge that Travis recommends so you can match your paint color.

    If anyone knows a good source for an L shaped bracket that is 4 inches tall with a 3 inch base in black would love for you to chime in.
