i think i have another idea for forming a frame to attach to for the upper grill block. for my yr/model as i am sure there is for yours, there are several aftermarket "mesh grill insert kits", i found one that provides "clip on" lower grill mesh (which i was going to fab anyway to protect my 3 stacked radiators) and an upper grill clip on mesh. i am thinking of using the upper mesh as the perfectly formed clip on frame to attach my block to. just trying to decide if its worth the $70 for something alrady cut to fit and ready to clip on. i also plan on enclosing a tunnel from the lower opening to force all the air into the radiator sandwhich, creating a little down force, and putting on a vented carbon fiber hood to get the hot air right out. is your lower air dam finished? looking to do that as well, out of thick rubber.

I've thought about those clips as well.
I finished the new air dam, and it's working out much better. I have to figure out how i'm going to put in a new grill block. I want to try and find some black Coroplast, so that when I get a stone chip in it, it's still black, and then cover the outside much like you did.
Good luck, and keep modding!
