Really thinking of placing an order. I think the polished bright silver is the one for me. Hey Old man what do you think I should put on my silver car above pic. What deal do they have for the 3 piece set in polished. I think you have the polished. Do they take charges? Where do I order? Thanks Ron

I don't have a definitive answer, but after looking at old man's grill I will most likely have a can of flat black spray paint to tone down anything that might show through before the new one goes on.

According to some directions email me on installation of the bottom grille it shows 2 - 5/8 in holes drilled in the side of where the lower grills mount. Aren't these awful big holes for mounting. If these grills are removed you have to large holes. Is there another way to mount?
Just read all the posts and it says the lowers are just hooked on with zip ties to the original grills. Is this correct? Anyone have directions we can see on this installation before I order? Ron
