Gen 1 Ipd Grill Install Walk-Through

[Kevin.]

HUGE shout-out to Gary for getting the GB together

This is the original waterfall plastidipped black with a chrome edge taped off for contrast. I also used a S40 grill emblem (part number 30882392) to freshen up things

So, this is what you get in the package:

the grill I purchased came with mounting hardware and a CJ Yother hood release for this particular grill

First things first I removed the clips holding the old grill slash on with needle nose pliars

Now that the slash is removed, I used a dremel to remove the plastic tabs used to secure the grill since they do not line up perfectly with the holes in the grill. I also removed the bump in the middle of the slash so it would sit flatter on the grill

Then I put 3M double sticky tape on the slash so I could secure it to the grill

now is when I removed the stock grill release handle and installed the CJ Yother hood release handle

When you are putting the grill on, use a lock washer and then a normal washer on the screw and attach! Bada-bing you're done!

I love how this grill looks, now I just need to darken up my bumper trim more to match it

Looks good Kev. Also, are those headlights just regular e code lenses? Appears to me that the highbeams aren't fluttered

they are just regular old e-code lenses. the high beams have less fluting than stock but they definitely have fluting

Hmm... Might have to do this with the same grille I bought...
