Someone is selling one for 140 in the parts section along with some other great stuff. I'd snap it up soon!

The fit is not great, but you can make it work if you either shim the bumper support, or apply additional push pins (which requires drilling the bumper cover). I like the look, just wish it fit better.

Mine fits great. Used three pushpins and drilled the bumper. No regrets.

For the little bit of extra work to fit it, it is worth it. Makes the car look more aggressive. Combined with the Boss valence and splitter = WIN!

I have one that I put on the car and removed it. it has zero miles on it. I did not like it as much as my factory C/S grill with the pony removed. Will sell for $160 shipped.

I have a feeling this grille will be hard to find in the future. I might even buy an extra one. I bought an extra back up set of 99-04 brand new chrome Saleen rims and ended up selling them recently.

You won't believe what they sold for! All because the wheels aren't made anymore.

Made me start eye balling the original set...,and think hmmmmm?

You don't have to remove the cover to install it.
