Message:
I'd like to modify my grille so that it's permanently affixed in the "closed" position, and the hood opens up normally, separate from the grille.

Anyone know how this is done?

Well, damn! I had no idea it was that simple. You're sure helpful, f u ck er.

I don't know if I could have figured that stuff out on my own.....

Now.....what would you suggest for mounting the grille shell to the bumper? I mean, that sorta IS the tough part......

Thanks, ronny. If you happen to have any pics of the mods you did (particularly the metal mounts), could you email them to me?
