Why don't you get one off of a stock grill that has the threaded plastic stems and mount it just like stock.

Well mine had nipples on it that wedged tightly into the grille. So I put epoxy on the nipples and stuck them in and it's never moved.

I used black silicone- seen in my avatar. I used blue tape to hold it on overnight while it dried.
