hey wave, looks great!

just wanted to point something out, in case you haven't noticed it yet. when you first install the grille, the top left and top right corners pull pretty tight on the rubber trim/seal around the chrome trim, so much that they are behind the grille at that point. i found that everywhere but these two corners it was laying nice and flush, providing a good seal between the hood and grille. so i had to take it off the first time, and then put it back on again while pulling on the seal and pushing down the grille before tightening the bolts in the back.

just thought you might like to know - looks like your top corners did the same thing, might be nice to fix it so that water and other gunk doesn't get in there. other than that, the grille is perfect - really stands out, doesn't it!?
