Do I need to remove my grille to install this?

Test-fit first. The mounting method and grille clearance aren't confirmed in the specs — you may need to remove or modify your grille depending on your exact vehicle configuration. Have a helper and take photos during disassembly so you can reassemble accurately.

Will the chrome finish hold up to road salt and weather?

Chrome plating is corrosion-resistant by design, but it benefits from regular washing — especially in salty climates. Rinse the underside regularly and dry it when you can. If the plating ever chips, spot corrosion can develop underneath.

What hardware do I need to bolt this on?

Fasteners aren't included with this assembly. Check your vehicle's service manual for the correct bolt size, grade, and torque specs for the frame attachment points. You'll likely need basic hand tools and a torque wrench.
