>>Do you guys know if you need a different grille frame to put the ABT
euro grill on? Does it just have to be mounted straight without the
frame?<<

The Abt grille is a complete replacement. Requires 4-8 holes to be
drilled depending on personal preference.

OK, installed the ABT grille on Saturday, what a pain in the ass.   
I don't know if it comes with special brackets or clips like the OEM  
grille, but we had to make our own brackets to get it to fit.  I  
got the grille free from my brother-in-law who owns an autobody  
shop, he came across one and painted it for me, man it's great to  
know the right people.  Anyway, the thing seems really cheaply made,  
not as nice as the Kamie grile, IMO, which is what I originally  
wanted.  But, hey, I am not going to turn down a free ABT grille,  
that would be just plain stupid.  Looks great though, I just don't  
like the quality of the grille, I thought the mesh part was metal  
but it isn't, oh well... Now all I need is Koni's for the front (I  
have the rears) and I could put my suspension on, I have H&R springs  
to go with that.
