No it's acutally a homemade grill like Darkfury has posted. He did a great job and detailed every step. Check out his post. I did mine a while back but not quite as well as he did. I cut out each individual section, sliced up my hands pretty bad. Wouldn't reccomend my way. My truck is ok but not as clean as I would like it to be. My estimate is in 6 months I'm going to have it on 20's(already in the works, Thanks to Jonas) a new grill and bumper cover and, totally shaved and painted Civic silver (love that color).

You did a better job that I did. I tryied usuing the gutter guard,but lost my nerve when it came time to remove the factory insert. I was gonna do it,but did'nt want to do anyting I could'nt un-do. Once I bought the S.S inserts and read instructions , I felt like an idiot! I could have saved ALOT of money!

Thanks Roby...

And kennungesser... I too was afraid to cut the plastic inserts, but then said... "what da hell".

BTW, what do the SS insert instructions say? I remember the guy at the local customizing shop telling me that he wanted to charge me 7 hours @ $35 per hour for labor to install the uppers and lowers for SS...

That's outragous you should think about not giving them any more service cuz chances are they are over charging you.
