I have the same "style" for mine, it's the silvy version though. I just lined it up as good as I could and drilled the holes and bolted it on. They look worse than they are, just take your time with it!

i had trouble getting the clips that came with it to work with my grille. i had to order a new grill (check out LMC truck, they got stuff for everything, ordered mine without the grill inserts, just ordered the shell) and got the speed grille inserts from Stylin' but the clips were too small to fit over the lip of the grille and hold the inserts in place. i called stylin, and they sent me an assorted bag of clips at no charge and i found a few in there that would work. might give stylin a call and see if they can help you out.

i do agree, it is extremely frusturating...hope it works out for ya

Well that's just a little bit different than my Trenz grill was for my silverado, but the most important part of getting it to fit right was a nice clean cut. After that, it went together pretty well, with rivets. I think mine came with nuts & bolts also, but I used all rivets instead.
