Unhappy

Dang, I like the 3-bar design, but I am worried about the airflow (especially down here in Fla). But I kinda like putting on the emblem, and I dont know if the one the OP bought would allow that to happen. Also, I have the H-bar and I dont want the extra cost of getting a honeycomb grill. But its getting harder and more expensive to find a decent Roush grill. I'm soo conflicted!

I actually kinda like the one the OP has... To bad it only works with the honeycomb.. Unless you can cut out the H-Bar some how

I like both of these grills.

To the OP...since its a overlay...and you did it voer the honeycomb grill...is any of that honeycomb needed to support the new grill? Could you cut out all the honeycomb so you dont see any of it behind the new one?

If you look at his pictures in his album, it appears that he did cut it out.

I've seen the truck in person and the grille looks real good. You don't have to cut out the honeycomb but he did because the emblem mount was still visible behind it. Also I don't think there would be any reason to worry about airflow there is plenty of breathing room. You would have to cut away an H-bar for sure.

I was looking at my H bar and I dont see any way of cutting one away and having this fit and look good.
