I think I'm the first to do this.

That looks really nice. How was the installation?

The hardest part was popping out the pins that hold the foam padding on the top (where the hood lands). The foam is stuck on with adhesive too.

The headlights were simple enough but accessing the DRL wiring to tap the halos into was a pain.

Do you think it was worth the effort, or would you think plasti-dip would be easier (and maybe cheaper)?

If you want to save some money I suppose dipping would be cheaper, I've never done it. I'm keeping the colored grille incase anything happens.

Nice!!
Im doin the exact same thing to mine when I get my Jeep. Ordered 10/11 and its sitting waiting for a truck ride to me. Grille is here already. Looks good, show us some more pics that include the whole Jeep so we can get an idea how good it looks.

Did you paint it or did you buy it like that with the Punk'n surround?
The part is from Mopar and it reuses the colored molding the Saharas and Rubis come with. Sports need to buy the molding separate.

Looks Great!!
Thanks, I love the look of the headlights. There is about a 1/2 inch gap going back (depth) between the edges of the openings and the headlight assemblies so I'm looking for something to bump them out closer and I'll probably need longer M6x1.00 bolts to do it.
