I got it from McMaster-Carr. Part # 9358T341 at $130.00 for enough to do 2. So, I have 1 extra piece if anyone wants it for $65 + $10 for shipping.

I'll even throw in the cardboard template.

**Sold** to cross_007 - thanks

Quick question... What holds the stock plastic grill to the jeep at the bottom. I removed the plastic screws, but was getting a little nervous about pulling the grill out. Does it have some kind of snap in piece at the bottom?? that's what it looks like in the pics i've seen on this thread. thanks for the help.

Thanks to all the fine folks that posted this thread and all the different ideas. This is a great and inexpensive mod. Gave the JEEP a new look. I love that this jeep can be a different vehicle almost any day of the week depending on what you move, add, change. Anyway, I used gutter guard, used tie wraps with gorilla glue. Painted silver. 2-months, lots of highway miles, still looks great. Thanks!
