Read and understand instructions before attempting installation

Step 1.

Open the hood and remove the grille shell from the vehicle. To prevent scratching, apply masking tape to the face of the grille.

Step 2.

Use a die grinder to cut the honeycomb center out from the center of the grille shell. File or sand the cuts smooth around the opening. Center the billet in the opening. There are four ‘L’ brackets welded the back of the billet grille. These brackets align with the inside edge of the opening. Make sure the billet is centered and mark or scribe the holes in the brackets, to the inside edge around the opening. Drill a 1/8” hole at each mark. Use the #8 screws and flat nuts to secure the billet insert to the shell.

Step 3.

The factory Ford emblem can be re-installed over the billet grille with the use of double-sided tape. Re-install the grille assembly back onto the vehicle. Thank you for purchasing a T-Rex Billet Grille. 5/15/06
