Tom,
Would you take some pictures of the grill that replaces the Bumperrette's in the rear? I have done something similar and may change it. Did you cut out the bumper? What mesh grill is that you have used?

Looks nice!

Ryan

cut it out, but remember I also removed the rear bumper and why the holes are there in the first place, that is what is behind the bumperettes

call ViperBob about the screen he custom fit it....

I've done the same thing. I have both bumpers removed, and have stainless mesh over the holes now. I haven't cut the holes out yet though. Looks nice, and I'm going to look into it. Thanks for the lead.
