Grille inserts installed...Thanks again (pic)

Finally had time this weekend to get the inserts I painted last week installed. Stock grille came off without a hitch...thanks for the tips. I found that I had to shape the inserts more than I thought in order to get them to sit right.

It was overcast today so the pic didn't turn out that great:


Thanks again...

Bearhunter, did you buy, or fabricate the inserts?

Thanks everyone,

3/4ER,

...No I am not as talented as JetJock

...these were streetscene inserts that I simply painted to match my truck. What I meant about the shaping was bending here and there to make the lines match and ensure gaps were filled.
