I installed the Xprite Vader grille.
Here's some before and after.

I bought it on Amazon. I've also seen it on ebay and their own site.

I used wire taps to go to the turn signal lights, white with green stripe, and F52 fuse tap to get accessory power for auto light control.

I was thinking more "E.T. home phone" with that big ol finger in every shot.

Don't show this grill in the diesel cooling/overheating threads, people will lose their minds lol

I don't really know that it's important to block my plate but you're totally right.

I normally am not a fan of the angry eyes, but this one is actually kind of cool, the side vent lights make it really neat.

Thanks. I'm with you on the angry eyes. I thougtht they've been over done but I liked the shape of the rest of it so much I can overlook them. Now we have to wait and see how long the built in lights hold up.

I felt like the front of the glady had too much green.

Haha, I wasn't trying to make you feel too bad, but the first picture with the light immediately made me think of that for some reason.

No worries. I totally get what you're saying.

The pic with the lights on reminds me of a praying mantis

Since the only thing that matters is the owners opinion, and if it isn’t hurting anyone to live and let, I won’t say how much I detest any and every aftermarket grille for Jeeps including this one because they are uglier than sin. Nor will I mention the iconic design and history of the original 7 slots, and slapping Chinese parts that erase that iconic design makes me furious.

I simply will not say it and bite my tongue.
