    I got them in the mail this week, I'm in the process of painting them and I'm trying to figure out what kind of grill I should put in, or how to even put one behind them. I've thought about getting another pair of stock grills and cutting them up to fit behind them, but I was wondering what you guys do with aftermarket grills to make them fit. I assume cut them up as well?

    I run CCG grills behind the GPO's, i cut off the stock mounting tabs on the bumper, and attached the grills BEHIND the bumper itself and zip tied them in the top in the stock slot locations along with the GPO's with 3M tape. Haven't had any issues at all and it works great.

    Boosten, that looks awesome. That's exactly the color scheme I'm going for as well, along with the front mount IC, but for my turbo lol.

    Then just get the CCG Grills and zip tie them to the back of the bumper like I show above. Easiest and best looking way IMO.

    You can use the ebay grills between the stock mounts and the gpo

    But I shaved mi e down an eighth inch and removed the hard inside and outside corners so the gpos sit flush. Turns out its the same thing that flip did
