Hell it looks as good as any other after market grill, I'd put it on mine. I wonder what it would look like painted gloss black? Is it polished or brushed?

Hey Warren - How close is the guard to the radiator, at the top?
(http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d31/warno_p/newgrill.jpg)
I tried SS expanded metal, I'm not sure which gauge but it was too heavy :lol:
I fastened mine to the black OEM rad guard as well & felt the top portion of the radiator was lacking protection, mine was close.

mine goes from the top of the stock grill to the bottom of it. :thumbs:
