I found a black grill and molding for my 09 MC but forgot to bookmark the page it was on. I cant remember the store name either. i know it was about $115 for the whole kit. if anyone can find it or give me some names of parts stores online that would be greatly appreciated.

I know outmotoring.com has them. I've had pretty good luck purchasing items from them in the past.

Has anyone installed either or both of these parts? Is it a fairly simple job?

 

Many have as it's a common swap.
It's super simple as all the hardware to remove and reinstall is very obvious.

Thanks Erik, I will give it a whirl.

 

dumb question from me, but do you need to install the molding too? Thank you!

 

You don't have to but it sounds as if it will take some extra effort to get it to stay in place. I'm planning to get both the grille and the trim as well.

 

But would it look good the molding with the bottom half?

 

I believe my 2011 has the newer grille that matches the JCW, so that's why I am asking lol sorry.
