Default Grill Weather Stripping ???

Just ordered the "Wildboar" Jeep front grill, I will be bedlining it and would just like to know how to remove the weather stripping off the OEM grill and install on the new one, or should I just get a new factory weather stip and install. Either way I would like to know the best way to install the weather stipping, from anyone how has done a grill swap.

Thanks in advance Cheers

did you order it directly from wildboar? how's it coming paint wise, primed? what'd they charge?

i've got so many questions b/c i remember looking at their site but them not listing prices and i've never seen their grills in person. i'm curious to see what you think

Yes I called them directly, the grill was 245.00 plus shipping total OTD was 276.00, it comes with a bare gel-coat finish that can be painted or like I will do bedline it.

Should have it in 2-3 weeks.

Default Hood Seal

Just wanted to let anyone know how may be interested, I picked up the weather stripping today from my local Jeep dealer, the part is refered to as a "Hood Seal" and runs about 35.00. I will be putting this on the new grill.

Cheers
