Just curious, if you guys removed the old grill, or left it on?

Thanks, when I put this one on it didn't fit with the old grill off, it was to small, and the instructions said to put it over the old honey comb, you can only see the old grill when your close, but it drives me nuts knowing that you can see it

what most people do it leave the outer ring of the old grill and like "cut" out the honey com part then it fits fine with out seeing a grill anymore

looks good!

and yeah, i put my ss grille on, but hated that you could see the honey comb grille behind it, so i took it back off, and cut the grille out from behind, leaving the outer edge of the entire thing on there.. looks 200% better!
