| 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. | |

Would be neat, but no idea where you'd find one for our grill. | |

| 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 | |

| Am considering putting this: Onto the Riv grill. Will buy one from a junkyard, cut off all the teeth and use adhesive after cutting the grill insert to fit on the back of the grill - most likely will have to cut off the R logo for it to work. The inspiration: Jaguar XKR | |
