    DIY Grill-Tech grill with OEM foglights

    I had a few requests for this DIY and since I did not take pictures as I did it I went back and pieced together what I could still do for pics. Any time I say to fit it up to the car make sure you have the protective covering over the sides so you do not scratch up your car. If you have any questions ask away.

    Parts and Tools needed.

    1 Grill-Tech grill. (Used is great and saves a lot of cash that is how I bought mine)
    1 Tape Measure
    1 marker
    1 package of thin zip ties
    1 Dremil tool. Can use cutters but a dremil works so great.

    First thing to do is to try an line up your grill on the car. You will notice since the gill tapers inward you will have a large gap on the one side of the fog light hosing.



    As you can see I took my front plate off to do this that is because of the bracket for the plate. The first thing you will need to do is cut the holes for them of you do not want to take off the plate. So just line up the grill were you want it and then take a marker and mark were you will need to cut, and then measure how deep you need to go and cut away.



    Now that you have it lined up again against the fog lights take the marker and mark were you need to cut it on each side. This will be easy to do with the front plate since it will hold the grill in place so it does not slid on you when you mark each side. If you can have someone help you mark the other side or just cut one side at a time to make sure your marks are right.




    Now that you have it cut it is time to play around and fit it. I had to sand down the sides a little to get it to fit and I found out in the upper corners I had to round it off a little so that the material that goes around will bend to go around the sharp turn you need.



    Once you have it all test fitted and in there it should look like this.



    Then get your zip ties and finish your install.









    I hope you will like no longer having bugs and rocks hitting your condenser and causing damage.
