    Here's a quick and dirty photoshop. Looking at it like this, I'm not sure I'd trust the outer edge to hold paint in a rock chip event. But I do like the look for the most part.

    There was always a little flex even with the OEM. But this one definitely has more. However, once I realized that support bar near the bottom needed to be moved over to the new grill that helped a lot

    I do have to fabricate another mount for the hood latch. I thought it was difficult to open because that grill flexed until I stiffened it up with that support bar. Then I noticed the issue was they got the geometry all wrong.
    So I've got to Make a small steel plate to attach the latch that then attaches to the grill mount so I can move the latch over about an inch. Easy fix

    A couple of more colormatched examples I found on the zuckerbooks. I really like both of these.

    These trucks really do look great with trimmed front & rear fenders for aftermarket bumpers. Don't think I'll be making those mods to my truck (at least anytime soon), but they do look great.
