        Pics? I guess I have an open grill but I want to know how it looks like. Mine just looks like the previous owner just didn't want to install the panel between the headlights.

              I got 2 '88 grills at the jy. Was gonna do DJ's mod, but liked Open mod better. Theres a thread in "Others Articals" that shows a great step by step prcedure.

                What do you mean "if the weathers good"? Your in Florida. It's always nice there. Unlike Ohio where it changes every 5 minutes. LOL

                            Good weather in Florida means NO rain! theres a sayin' in Fl. "If you don't like the weather , wait 5 min." It could, and does rain from a sunny sky. It could also be rainin' on your side of the street & dry on the other side. :]
