Billet Grille

Postby rodg » Mon Jan 15, 2007 11:19 am

Has anybody in this forum bought this grille from this Ebayer? Selling it for $115 shipped. Is this a reasonable price? Thanks

I just purchased one on ebay for $120 shipped.It looks just like the one you mentioned so I guess $115 is a good price.

I ordered my 4 piece billet grille and chrome door handles last Monday from grille4you. I will install and take pictures when weather permits. It's been very cold here lately.

I got mine over the weekend and installed it.I have to admit that it was very difficult.I have cuts and scrapes all over my hands and arms...I know,poor baby.These kits say they are over lays, and that's correct, but removing your grill, to install them, is almost a must.I didn't remove mine and that's how I got all cut up.As a matter of fact,I even had to ask my wife to help me..very humiliating.Anyway it really looks great so good luck with yours.

I got mine last Friday. The grille was easy to remove. Thanks to those who gave instructions on how to remove the grille. Installation of the overlay billet grille was a piece of cake. It only took me a few minutes to install them. However, installing the grille back was a pain in the neck because of the 4 plastic pins or whatever you call it on both ends. So, I decided not use them. My grille is now secured on the top and bottom only. Also bought the chrome door handle covers and the hitch step.

Looks good. I have two questions for you.

How did the door covers attach? Some sort of 3M style tape I assume?

The Nudge bar you have installed, do they attach anywhere near the grill/top of the bumper area at all or is it free floating up there? I have never seen one up close to look so I was just wondering if it bolted on just from the bottom or if there was additional support up top.

the door covers came with the 3M tape. I was also looking for the chrome side mirror covers but nothing is out there.

The Bull bar is bolted from the bottom only.
