Quick question for you guys, the style molding you are using, is it just a flat piece that has a adhesive strip on the back, or is it U shaped that kinding hugs the grill? I just seems to me when looking at the flat pieces that it wouldn't fit right on the grill just by slapping it on there, just wondering, thanks guys.

I love it. I'm looking forward to seeing it on my '01 Bolt. It should look great with Arctic White on 20" chrome

A cross section of the trim would look like a 'D' shape.
The rounded outer part you see is chrome. The back is flat and has 3M adhesive tape on it. The front of the stock grill has just enough flat surface on it for the trim to stick and look like its part of the stock grill. The trim only protrudes out on the top and bottom by just a fraction of an inch. The trim is made out of a soft flexible plastic material so it will contour to the lines in the grill very well.

For $27 its worth a try. If you don't like it just pull it off. I had to pull off a piece to redo it and it came off very clean.

Does anyone have any tricks for getting it straight? I did this to mine a while back but i noticed a chip on one the other day, so for $25 i was going to freshen it up and be a little more accurate this time. I never could get them as straight as i would have liked them the first time around.
