Default Pre-facelift lower center grille surround chrome...

or... PFLLCGSC as I like to call it :-)

Paul, I know you have done this mod. I bought the truck door edge moulding at AutoZone today. I like the way yours looks and want to do it on my 99.

Any tricks? Do you have to remove the center grille section from the bumper to install the chrome? Thanks as always.

Go over a curb and then backup with full troddle, it will pop out.

Default Yes, you have to remove the center grill

I had to loosen the license plate holder to get mine off. Make sure you clean the grill thoroughly so that the molding will stick. You may also want to put a little dab of glue at the ends to secure them.

Agreed, remove the 4 plate screws, then loosen the (2) 4mm screws and you can pop it out
