Do all of the grilles require to cut the stock upper grille? I saw how Chikenears had to cut the lip around his stock grille to make the speed grille work. Are the billet grilles the same way? Anyone have any up close pics of theirs?

Kinda hard to see though =/

 

Here is a closer one.

 

Flash,

Thanks for the quick reply. Unless my eyes are bad that one dosent look like it used any of the stock grille right?

 

Man I miss the edit feature. Do you know what grille that is?

 

I'm pretty sure it just replaces the stock grill. I'm not sure on the brand.

The owner's name is Silver-Bolt, he can give you more details.
He posts on here daily.

 

Thanks again Flash. That was a good upclose pic!!

 

Hope Silver-Bolt sees this...

i just unsnapped my stock upper one and cut the side tabs
off.

 

ICU:
I installed the Stull billet grille on mine. On the stull installation you have to remove the locating tabs that hold the stock grille in place. These locating tabs(about ten of them) are part of the grille shell. You need to remove these for the billet grille to fit flush against the shell.
I bought the stull because they said there was no modifications necessary. Oh well....
I like it though and I think if it was necessary to put the stock grille back in it wouldn't be all that difficult to make some brackets up to reattach it.
