Billet grille

I'm looking to install a billet style grille on my 03, and get rid of the plastic. I see lots of options on ebay and Amazon but most (all?) involve cutting out the original plastic and screwing the metal one in its place. Is this the standard route?

If there are folks on here who've done the billet thing, would be very interested in advice and suggestions. TIA.

Yeah thats how the majority work. If you don't want to go the cutting route, you shouldn't have to, but expect to pay a much higher price for them to do all the work for you.

Carriage Works offers a bolt on that fits between the bars on the SD grill.
