SECOND MOD IS ALMOST COMPLETE!!

Finally broke down with this EXCELENT February weather (currently low 50's in Ohio) and got my grille lights mocked up. I will end up doing this again at some point because, well I'm just a perfectionist and I messed up on one of the holes. It's in too far and too far forward. But it has been mocked up and painted and is currently drying. I'll do another one when its warm and I have access to a drill press!
