Hey people, last time I posted I did a LED strip on my tail lights, and this morning I popped in something else, but this time I'm devoting to the front. I read and read and READ the forums on how to take out the grille, and it sucks. you need some needlenose plyers to get those clips taken out, but it took me about 5 minutes. Putting the bumper back on, I did myself, but having a friend helps. There are some clips under the headlight that you need to pop the bumper into them, and it takes a few tries. Up next? Eyelids, def. eyelids (after a debate on tinting the top portion of the headlights).

I know it does, but I just don't want to screw with the rod and clamps from home depot. I still like how it came out, but I think even if you painted it matte black it would still look bad. My friend has the Stillen facia and I don't like how it turned out at all.

How did you get the stillen fascia without those 2 ugly pieces going across? I like the look of the fascia with just a plain open grill with mesh like yours. Could you tell me how you did it?
