Hi everyone,
I wanted to remove the coloured grille from my JL, and replace it with a satin black grille. In this forum and at all order pages I`ve seen you can read that Rubicon and Sahara modells have a grille made of 4 parts, middle part and three coloured moldings around. At the other hand, the grille of Sport modells is only one piece without any separate moldings.
I own an (european ) JL Sahara, so I ordered the satin black grille (the middle part) only, because I wanted to install the 3 coloured moldings from my original grille around the new black middle piece.

Last week order arrived, and today I tried to install it, but - surprise - the coloured grille in my Sahara is only one part, there are no separate moldings to take of. So there is the grille of a Sport modell in my Sahara.
I don`t know, but I think that is another "special feature" of the european JL-modell.
So - if anybody will do the same and replace the coloured grille with a satin black one - first have a look at your grille bevor you`ll oder the parts...
I had to order these 3 moldings separatly today (another 168 Dollar including shipping ) - and I`ll have to get them painted in my body colour...
