Get it unpainted and weld up the logo....
Cause their corners fit like shit and their sliders had porosity in the welds.I forget...why are we mad at them?

Just keep in mind, when you do your LS Swap your gonna want to keep the grill as clear as you can....
First one. Run a modern winch. Then sell your wheels and tires and get some 17” trail readys with km3. Total modernization.
So get a 20 yr old 9.5ti. Just make sure the brake works.modern winches suck
