Are you talking about the GrillCraft Front Grill?

If so, they come with really sharp screws. All I did was intalled the two screw on the side of the grill from the inside of the bumper.

Just crawl underneath the bumper. It took me 10 minutes if that and it's been on there for 4 years now. The 2 side Grills are even easier.

Nope that Helps. (Just use the Screws)



I recently repainted it from Silver to a Darker Metallic Silver color.

Later,

I used grille mesh from autozone and just used a crimper and bent the edges to get it to stay in. I only did the middle grille because getting the sides to stay in was impossible.
Middle grille has been on there for like 4 months w/o any problems and looks sweet.
