Yeah, I thought about that, but I don't think I'll be going that low on this truck. Or at least not during this phase of the build. Would love it if I could have both, but like you said... "No"

Not long at all. It's going to take me longer to get them installed


Minor update... Sorry no pics

I started to install the new chrome grille last night. I tried to keep the bumper on, but finally had to just pull it off. Couldn't get everything lined up with it on. It turns out, the passenger side was trying to share space with the lower fender. I'm not sure if the lower fender had been replaced, but it didn't have the same curve as the drivers side. I had to beat on it a bit, as well as the new grille, to get them to sit nicely next to each other. Go figure... aftermarket parts, right?

So between that, and the aftermarket side brackets I've got, the lower rivet holes don't line up. I'm having to get longer rivets for one side (after tweaking the bracket to make the holes line up). I still need to check the other side and probably make adjustments to it too.
