For a 2000 you've either got to cut the stock grill out or figure out a way to put the aftermarket grill on top of it with zip ties. I'm pretty sure someone on here has done it that way.

The problem is that the factory grille is a part of the bumper, and is not removable unless it gets cut out.

I think we're the ones who get shafted on grills. Our choices are Grille-tech and Trenz.

At least 2k-2k1 can get the Street Scenes.
