ya i was looking at that one too.is that replacement or the bolt over?how easy was it to install? i was also looking at the full replacement with the bars running all the way across without the frame work on your grill. my grill is the same as yours with the frame. can i take that out or do i have to get one like yours?yours looks good. who did you buy it from and whats the price?

You can take your entire grill out and put a replacement billet in place of it. I'm not sure what all is involved in that process though. I wanted to keep the black nostril grill on mine and add the billet look under it. This one I have is just a bolt over type in separate pieces. There are six pieces for the grill portion and 1 separate piece for the bumper. It's really easy to install and just bolts onto your honeycomb pieces. Made by Carriage Works (6 piece). I paid around $160 for the grill pieces and $60 for the bumper piece. There are other threads on this very thing with different pictures and info if you do a search under carriage works grill. Good luck. I've got a pretty cool plate coming for it in the mail next week.
