  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Dave, whoever answers the phone should have current info for you. I think they have only morning office hours for calling them. If nothing else, ask for Richard...

    Gave them a call, they only have a few remaining. I think they made 150 grills, some of which will go to Year One. I should have talked to my wife first before I ever posted a reply. When she heard the price she scared me. I'm sure prices will never be lower. I just can not justify the cost.
    I hate being ME!!!!!!!!!

    more detailled pictures of all the mounting screws which are correct.
    I used regular canned silver paint and the black is canned semi-flat. But you don't really need to paint the black parts (which should be dark metallic silver, for correct NOS look) since the plastic is semi-flat black. I have some overspray that I'll correct soon... I was just quite impatient to see it on the car !!
