yeah, I got the idea from phat_99celiGT. He had a simple how to install grill instructions.
see my previous "new grill" message. 15 minutes to install! and it makes the front a lot sportier. |

I just went to Home Depot , went to the House gutter section and there was this grill which you can attach to the house gutter to keep the leaves out. It was the exact width and I just needed to cut some length off.

I used an APC grill on mine, although its more custom cause i had to cut it to size and install it with twisty ties myself.

Claudio - thanks for the PM response.
RedWuken - Very nice job on the grill. Still have one question ... Are the 3 posts removable or are they an integral part of the bumper? |

they are support for the gap... if you take them out in time the front bumper will begin to sag through wear.

Thanks Claudio & K2.
So I'm going to have to keep the supports.   uummm, I have an idea!I wonder if I can cut out the posts, cut the grill to shape and integrate, in some way, some supports at the back of the grill so that they are not visible.

if you look at some "member's rides" photos you'll see some grills in front of the posts. Maybe ask them how they did it. It look like they cut to fit the grill placed it on the outside (covering the posts) and zip tied them in place. See "how to" section.

im sure theres a way to make some kind of "stealth" support to hold up the bumper w/o needing the bars there, im just not going to be the guinnie pig (wow that was some pretty butchered spelling)
