I personally found it easier to put the chrome strips on with the grill off the car. I just brought it inside and set it on the table and did all my work there. Much more organized too.

You could always do the chrome grill mod and then lay wiremesh behind it and glue it on....

what sucks is that i hate chrome...

I wanna black out the grille and get rid of all the other chrome on the car lol help
