^ i know the tabs for all years are the same. so u can use this diy on an 08 as well. but dont hold my word for it. i just know people have put 05-07 grill's on 08's without mods. im not sure if the chrome trim on yours is the same.

finally someone made a DIY on how to do this!!!
but I still dont trust myself to do this LOL....

How much would you be willing to do this for me if I bought the chrome trim and grille and shipped it to you and then I paid the shipping back to me???

Dakine,

You should let people know that the grille you have in the pics was not the way you had done it according to this DIY.

The grille you did in the pic was cutting the center logo out of the upper grille, and made a piece to fit from a lower grill. You didn't cut the whole upper grille out correct?

Reminds me of one my friend made.

This was posted back in 2006 though ^^

Oh and if you look at page 13 on that thread, username Magic mentions Dakine, lol.

I'm running grill-less right now =D

I have to install my vrd grills.

Good work on the instructions though.
