no. It unscrews just like a post-97 grill would. Normally you would get the griffin badge recess filled but thats up to you.

cut the bottom layers off the steiny and trimmed the edges, then moved the badge up a bit, its only held on with screws

Luke: Nope just TLC. It really doesnt look as good in the flesh, the pics seem to make it look a bit better for paint.
808: I think they are a little gay 2 but i wanted somethin puttin there and didnt want SXi so just put them on. Hopefully will have a 16xe or 20xe dropped in within the next 6months so wont look as shite then
