It is pretty straight forward to remove the grille, but I think there are 5 bolts, 10mm I believe. There is also the thin black plastic surround, it may or may not fit with the new grille.

Stock grill has 5 studs, which take (5) 10mm nuts to fasten it on.. Easy as pie..

I'll be watching this because I like the looks of it. Gotta see it installed though.

Take for ie: front end linkage parts, GM =crap, Aftermarket = much better

But doing ones homework on something new helps..& their reputation is also a vital key..

Off topic, do you think the "clunk" I hear in the front end when I transition from a dead stop in a different direction (stick shift) is front end linkage? Can anyone direct me to a topic that's been discussed on this?
