    I'd trade ya a 70' metal grill with no sport lamps for the one with sport lamps. I didn't pay much attention to it but I'm pretty sure it's flawless.

    i would like to see some pics of grills w/ lights installed next to the sport lights if anyone has some pics, if not i may take you up on your offer. mine has some broken mounting flanges, they were plastic, but i ziptied the grill w/ black zip ties and you cant even tell, mine is also missing the plastic bezels that go around the lights

    As far as I know, total access to anything here is entirely free, but here ya go...

    I have plans for driving lights under the bumper to replace the turn signals - I have a set from a late model Sable that are the same shape but quite a bit deeper and at a different angle, so I have to figure out how to mount them properly. More on that in a future installment!
