the bolts are at the top on each side. you need a 8 X 1.25 nut and flat washer to put on it.

you cant miss them

i found out that Home Depot sells them individually and in a 5 pack. so that would be better than Lowes.

Finally installed mines today. Used (3) ziptie pads under the lower lip to secure the bottom. Also a couple zipties in holes near center (brackets) to secure top more.Then masked area and spray painted again w/ bbq pit black . Got a lot of scratches test fitting.

Thanx Sindydix

I think we all (budget lower grill) owe Sindydix a great big thank you, and Mr.Bumpstops too. It`s great to see Us come together as a group and not get upset. (like the aftermarket spoiler thread).
Thanx Sindy...B/B

There has been a lot of mods done because of unselfishness and that I am thankful for. I too am thankful for those people like HVRod, Sindy and Mr Bumpstops and others who are willing to share their ideas with others.

If anyone wants to use and have copied my ideas and mods that is fine with me and welcomed.
