Crutchfield doesn't ship to Canada and AutoAnything won't ship for orders under $500.

Annnnd... in response to myself on this matter.

I contacted them; and asked them about the fact that they have it listed in Black. The following is the reply that I got back from them!

Hello,
I am a direct distributor for Carraige Works and they asked me to contact
you about your inquiry.
The Upper Grille is 176.86 and the bumper grille is $72.47. Total is $249.33 plus approx. $20.00 freight. That is the prices for them in black and they are availble and can ship right away. If you would like to order these you can e mail me or call the number listed below and we can get them shipped.
Thank you,
J.P. Rusk

The stull offered by SoCal gives a very similar look and requires no cutting!

But can the Stull be painted?

I'd get one if it can be painted; and then find a "bowtie" to add to it.. just cause I think a black grill with a gold bowtie would look pretty good.

Question better left answered by SoCal, or someone who has already painted one.

For anyone that has installed the CW lower grille, the instructions seem to imply that the top mount is not actually bolted/screwed to anything other than the grille itself.

It looks like it just leans against the bumper framing. Is that right?

Doesn't sound like it would be very secure.

You're right, that's basically what it does. Just the two screws and clips fasten it on the bottom, and the two brackets hold it against the bumper frame on the top. There's quite a lot of tension that holds the top in place. I put one on a few Months ago and there's been no problem with it. (Looks great too!!)

I've had mine on for over a year and no problems. If you mount it right the pressure from the bottom holds it in really tight.
