Default RK sport grille installed (pic)

Finally got it painted and installed, I'm very pleased with the way it looks. Pic is with my crappy 3.2 mp camera. I'll get some better shots with the 10.1 mp when the weather clears.

Looks great!!

I've got one sitting in the garage that I just finished painting. I picked it up used and it had no mounting hardware with it. I hate to get off topic, but how have you guys installed these grilles? What kind of hardware is used, etc.?

The SS emblem is the OEM just got it from the dealer

the grille comes primered, I had a buddy that owns a body shop paint it for me.
They don't sell them with the RK sport logo on them anymore.

Headlights are Halo's they are all over ebay
Thanks for all the compliments guys.

I used the Wings West grille on my car but was not a fan of the chintzy chicken wire mesh that came with it. I recommend getting some stainless steel "wire cloth" (that's what it's called). You can see how much better it is...

Yeah, the mesh is included. They send a sheet of it and you have to cut it to fit and attach it.
