No hole for hood latch on grilles and guard

Very disappointed, there is no place to access the hood latch. I like the look of the insert but it won't install so now I have to return this item.

Pros
  • Tough finish
Cons
  • Zero

Looks great! - Grille and guard

At first the landing wasn't perfect. Installed on my wife's 2017 JKU, behind her evil eye grille. At first it looked like it would flex, as if its 1/16 inch width was too big. Your grille has mounting holes on the back so I put some small screws in and they look great.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • I won't say anything

Great flag but mounting problem

Jeep grille flag is well made and looks good but no clips or ways to attach the flag to the grille. I taped it behind the bars but it might hold up for a while in windy and inclement weather. I was pretty much left to my imagination, with no proper installation, no instructions.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Expensive

Also buy blue color

Pretty loose. it's purple I saw another reviewer say the same thing about one from another seller so I went with this one hoping it would be different but it isn't. It's like they drew a blue line and then the color ran out. I also don't like how flat it is, so I already know it won't sit anywhere near the flush. I'll try installing it after I repaint it and hope it's not too bad. Otherwise it will be recycled.

Pros
  • delivery was very fast
Cons
  • small things

Do not buy! 🚨 Without brackets

It sucks! Destinations and goods are nonsense. All you get in the box is a mesh screen with some misleading instructions. The mesh screen, the blue flag of life, doesn't even come close to the size needed for it. Too small. Plus, there are no brackets to hold in place. The instructions say to just drop it behind the grill and then reattach the front panel of the grill. The problem is that the grille just slips while driving. Don't buy unless they come with kits and are the right size.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Periodicity

Easy installation, no screws required

The product is a very strong metal mesh. The paint appeared to be of good quality; no scratches or anything. I've just got back from a long trip and the engine has never overheated like some have claimed. However, the jeep is only a few thousand miles away. I would have liked the product to come with instructions, but a YouTube video was used. There are several threads for installing this "plugin deployment". I wanted to do that and not screw anything into a rented Jeep, so I did. I would like…

Pros
  • Got it!
Cons
  • -

Nearly perfect. in Exterior Accessories

So I just installed this on my jeep so can't comment on durability. that is - it looks pretty cool. It seems like pretty hard work for what it is. I doubt how well it will hold up over time. I wanted to give it 3 stars for two reasons: First, NO INSTRUCTIONS. I have read reviews from others who have purchased this item and some people just put it in, others invent a way to secure it. I'm not a big fan of him just sitting there, so I drilled small holes in the Jeep's existing grille and used…

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Useless Features

It's so easy and convenient, if not, you did it wrong!

I don't understand why people say it doesn't sit flush with the grate or that holes need to be drilled to mount it. Check out some You Tube people! I'm a girl with zero mechanical skills and installed it in less than 5 minutes. No, there were no instructions, but they are not needed. To be honest, it took me longer to figure out how to open the hood and I confess I did it for the first time too! You don't just open the hood and tape it in front of the radiator, you pull out 6 plastic screws…

Pros
  • Excellent Overall
Cons
  • Doubtful
