I also got the cut portions of rod from the bottom end rods of the billet JB Welded into place on the top ends. It doesn't look pretty, but nobody will ever see them. The billet insert is now ready for the powder coater. Once the A/C work is complete, I'll also remove the front bumper for powder coating as well.

Couple pics of threaded rods from bottom of billet grille reattached in place of portion removed from the top:

Front view of billet grille with reattached rods at the top:
