Enigma34: For about $30, don't expect it to fit flush lol.. mine doesn't.

Ej6buddy: Eh? my problem is.. When I have the clips down on it (I press the grill down to clip it in) its fits, but its about 1/4 above the bumper and doesn't fit flush. I don't see how puddy's gonna help that?

Sigracer10: Thanks. Its a nice $30 mod lol.

i'm not really sure about the fitment, but you can help hold the grille down if its too far away from the bumper by pushing down and putting plumbers putty between the bumper and grille. this is b/c the cheaper grilles don't have the bottom screw supports to the bumper like the oem grille. and if you're never happy with the fitment, just do like i did, retrofit, cost me nothing but about an hour of work for a flawless factory fit and finish.

Is your grill conected to any thing on the bottom? i just put mine on. all i did was take off like 7 plastic screws on top of the stock grill , ad the 2 on the left and right side of the grill for the bumper. With a little force i got it out, my new grill does not have them things for clips on the side, all i did was bolt it on and it fits good, but is it supposed to be a bul to lift up from the bottom?

I think so.. Its aftermarket, rememeber. So it won't fit exactly like the stock one. But mine has like.. 3 clip like things I had the push the grill DOWN on, and a plastic bolt type thing on the top right and left to secure it.
