I come home from work, and sitting on my porch is a box from GMpartsdirect. I got my grille and marker lights for my junkyard nose. WOOHOO.

Edit: Now can someone tell me how to mount the friggin thing? I have screws for the marker lights, but i see only two screwholes on the top. Thats all that holds on a plastic piece from falling off at 60-75 mph???

When I switched to that grille insert I had to drill those 4 holes for the center section.

Pretty sweet man! I am pretty sure you should do what Jza said! When i had my car painted almost 2 1/2 yrs ago, i got a new front end, so when i went to put the grill back on, there weren't any holes. So i just left it off and as time went on, it stayed that way. I am prety sure i am going to buy a new one since my stock one looks like crap with the new paint, even when i spray painted it! I am just going to drill some holes in the bumper cover and screw it on. good luck
