So I'm looking to change my grill out but the problem is I cannot find anytihng for the 08 model...I want to do the lover valance and upper grill, preferrably "billet-style", but can only find them for 05-07 and 09+...please post any links/info/pricing for upper and lowers grills for the 08 WK (ANY GRILL IS FINE). I am also thinking about getting an SRT8 grill for the rear hex/mesh plastic; anyone have one they want to sell or know where I can get one?? Any assistance is greatly appreciated

Does anyone have a billet-style grill installed on their 08-09 WK?? Please post pics here...below are the links/pics for the parts I am looking at!

yes, and also after you swap the mesh part, you can put the two leftover parts together and get a few bux for that.....

the 08 and 09 bumpers are the same bro

Thanks Scott...that is what I thought but on eBay everything is for 05-07's and 09+. I emailed one of the vendors and they said it would NOT fit an 08. So if it fits an 09 it will for sure fit an 08???

I voted mesh since you can get the bottom one too

Mesh, since the rest look cheapish to me..

i had something like this in black on my XJ. look close at the third pic from the top. see all the horizontal stuff. you can see too much benind the billet. most of those kits mount to the stock slats, if they dont hide it all, looks cheap IMO.

Thanks rob that why I wanted to talk about it...that is also why I prefer option 2 for the billet b/c like you said you cannot see the mounting crap and they are very close together...but i also like the mesh; kind of a "strut grill" look
