Nice write up man! I might have to do this....but I better make sure my REALLY EXPENSIVE SCION can handle this "cheap" part

All joking aside I think this mod looks better then the grill craft ones. Good job!

just go to www.autozone.com and search for 3m tape and find 3m molding tape. as far as zip ties go, i didint use zip ties, but u ARE able to...just be creative. u'll prolly have to drill just like if u were installing an aftermarket grill. i just used double sided tape all the way. lol

there are some people in my area that have done this mod prior to your diy. the idea's been out there... but you got the credit for making the diy... but it's insane how many people have asked me for lower grilles because of you....

thanks....

wait... you mean to tell me you double-sided-taped your spoiler on?? tell me you didn't.

other than that, the front grill looks pretty good. I want to get the lower grill with the foglights anyway, so then I'll have an extra bottom to put up top. I still might use something tougher than tape though.
