Nice!

I had a jackrabbit commit suicide a few weeks ago. It didn't hurt the CF splitter but it broke the grill. I ordered a Z06 grill as a replacement but it was broken when I got it. Still waiting for a good one I can install.

Great job!

The Z06 grill is the best way to fix the front end retainer. Never mind those cheap vinyl overlays or even the factory blackout option, this looks the best.
