Just Bought a Cheap Kit of Amazon
I just bought this kit off Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Wrangler-BLACK...9994156&sr=8-1). Probably paid too much for it but it was done for me already and well painted. Here are some shots:

He doesn't know what he is talking about. The zip ties hold true, it's the little square things the tie goes through that will not hold if you use them as supplied. Most everyone glue down the squares with something else, than they hold just fine. Some just use one large piece of metal and don't use any tie downs at all.

Thanks, great to know. He was trying to talk me into skrewing them down to the grill. I was thinking about making a removable bracket system so all you have to do is slide one in and if you ever need to replace it you just slide it out. But I will probably just do the zip tie idea. Easy and cheap!
Great Job!

So its been a bit since i did the grill mod, hafta say no problems whatsoever. Mud, snow, -30 celsius, wash, junebugs; nothing.
My only advise is proper prep work, i removed the adhesive backing on the tie blocks and washed the grill down before I started. (check my write up a few pages back).
also gorilla glue ftw, this shit is crazy strong.
good luck all!
