Easiest Mod Yet
Basically followed everyone's tips and instructions on this thread, came out great...I used the 4-pack of gutter gaurds from Lowe's that come in 6"x36" sections, and cut 7 sections to fit behind each slot. I also used the black 1"x1" mounting blocks, three in each line, with zip ties. I too had a couple come loose within 24 hrs, but remounted and coated the edges with emblem adhesive to hold strong. I literally had this mod done in 30 minutes while watching SportCenter. Grille comes off very easily, the longest item was moutning each section and securing to the mounting blocks.

So I've done this to my jeep but I've been wanting to bedline the grill black and paint the metal thing white (color of my jeep) and then paint the jeep part white too. I was wondering if anyone has seen it done? I've seen the thread with the blue one but I wanted to see it on a white one.

After having the aluminum on there after two Winter's I realized that it starts to look like crap and corrosion starts to set in so I pulled mine and re-did it but this time I sprayed the mesh with metallic silver and then cleared it so I wont have to redo it for a LONG time. Still one of the best bang for your buck mods that can be done to a JK.

$300 What should I do with it
So I just found out I won $300 from the lotto on wed night and immediately thought how can i spend this on my 4dr JK sport. So far its all black with rubi: tires, shocks and rock guards. I was thinking of getting a shorty bumper and maybe some lighting... Any suggestions?
