^don't think I wanted it. It came with it. Can't do much about that when I got the car for $16gs brand new. Boo-ya!

Need to do something about it though. It screws the whole look up on the front end...

Excellent photoshop work on that on Padlock.

Perhaps I'll see if I can find some glossy black vinyl to use. I really don't want to paint it in case I don't like it.

Thanks for the PS padlock

I've got one sitting in my attic if you want it. Unfortunately there is a special grill that is supposed to fit it, you would have to modify your stock grille and bumper to make it fit.

I was raised the right way

Dad is made of money... Keyword is Dad, not me. He will share his financial tips, but not his finances. I get to use the garage whenever I want though to clean the car... So I'm there a lot
