i have billet grills now (i kno some of u think they are rice.. or bling bling..) but ihave a question. I figured out how to get the top grill in no problem.. altho the lil clips scared me when they popped out.. but i have to clue how to attach the bottom billet grill.. i havent even taken the bottom out because i had to drive the car to work today..now i have the instructions how to remove the bottom grill and it says it is all pop clips.. but when i look at the bottom billet replacement its has 4 places where u screw it it.. can anyone please shed some light on this?

Thanks. John
ps.. lemme save u the trouble.
(rice) (bling) (woowoo)
 
i am almost positive there is a lil plastice rim on the inside ofthe fender behind the lower grill..pop the lower grill out, and make a few small holes in that rim for your screws...should look great...be sure topost some pics whenyour done
 
ahhhhhhhhhhh thank you -=) ill be sure to check that out.. anyone else have any other ideas?

::update::
sorry folks.. no install pics.. but it was pretty easy.. i had a friend of mine help me with it.
remove liscense plate
remove plate bracket
pull out stock black grill (makes a nasty popping noise.. scarred the bejeebas outah me)
line up the billet grill where you want it.. the 4 mounts go onto what i will call the bumper support.. a metal frame up top and 2 little metal mounts in the bottom left and right corners.
use a sharpie and mark the spots.
drill drill drill
Screw drive that bad boy in.. not real descriptive but towards the end i had put away a 12 pack of corona and just wanted to go to sleep.. im going to wait to post pics until the top part get here. cus it woud look (rice) with one billet and one black.. unless of course u have a intercooler on the bottom..
