If your state doesn't require a front license plate - you can bring out that center grill almost even with the sides. Just use U brackets to bring it out about two inches. Looks really nice.

There is no exposed chrome edges on the center grill as there are on the outer grills.

The original center grille was painted pot-metal...no chrome on it.
