I stopped in after the dyno (119.58 HP/122.99 ft/lb's) and picked up the ST grill I had Steve put on the side for me. THEN came the fun part. This morning I pulled out my chrome/black stock grill and after about 45 minutes of fighting with the 12 tabs on the back of each grill i got them both apart. It was awesome, and I ever want to do it again, lol. Anyways, on with the pic.

What do you have done for performance other than the exhaust? That was Magnaflow right?

I did that on my first one, the second one I took a chisel to the Tabs and just shaved enough off that they would come out yet there was still friction on the tabs when you reinstalled it.

They are stock ones painted black. After they are on, I can concentrate on my tail light set up, once I get another set of them...
