it's attached at 4 points, 2 top and 2 bottom. there are 2 vertical slats behind the grille, closer to the sides, that are welded to the outside horizontal slats. the 4 ends of the verticl slats, they are screwed to the back part of the original plasitc chrome frame.
so yes, indeed, the outside become quite flimsy while the center grille is all solid coz' outside is just plastic. the stock grille doesn't flex coz' there are plastic vertical slats all over it, but the frame on the jp grille is just an "empty" plastic frame, so it flex quite a bit. when i open up my hood, i actually try not to pull on the latch/grille that much. who knows

No biggie Henry. I'm just teasing is all. Main reason I'm sure is you live in NorCal while Wifey is in SoCal. No way you could spend so much time on line if you two lived together. Wives demand attention!
