I was getting ready to slap my grill in my last night and was wondering if I going to be able to now that I have the grill surround in the car already. I think I'm going to have to take it back out and assemble it out of the car. The reason is the head light door bracket cant be reached I dont think. Has any one installed there grill with there grill surround peice already in? Maybe I can reach in there but I'm not sure.

You will want to take the valance back off too.

Assemble the grille, install that ,then the bumper and finnally the valance.

Sorry to hijack the thread but is it easier to assemble the grill before the front fenders?  :scratchchin:

You will want you're front sheet metal installed before installing the assembled grille.
