Home Depot Grill?

So what is the infamous Home Depot Grill that I keep catching references to? I tried searching around for some pics, but they were all of 3rd & 4th gen'ers. Does anyone have pics of the HDG on a 5th gen?

I have an '03 and am wondering what it'd look like. Don't get me wrong, I love the look of the stock grill and probably won't change it. Just curious.

As a side note, I just ordered the lower grill from Grill-Tech... anyone have any experience putting one of those on? Should I rust-proof it first?

Thanks!

i used the home depot grille to protect my tranny cooler. i picked up some gutter guard and sprayed it with a dark silver rustoleum and its been on for about a year now. i dont think ive seen anyone put it behind the main grill but im sure someone has. you can see mine on my homepage in some of the heads on shots. im also pretty sure the instructions are still up on max-world.org under the how tos.

I installed the grill-tech two piece lower insert. It's simple, just use the zippies supplied. I waxed mine (they recommend it). It looks great. I'm now considering the upper piece...but don't know what it takes to remove stock. I don't want to destroy it.
