Headlight Grill SlimShadey
SlimShadey, Get the Arlen Ness Grill it works with no modifications other than I recommend powder coating the ring that holds the bulb in black also.This ring also holds the Arlen Ness Grill in.

Headwinds Grill
Slimshady, I think I may like the Headwinds you chose better than the Ness I have. Does the Headwinds replace the outer headlight housing ring? Oh, just for some info on the Ness Grill, it can be mounted horizontal, or vertical. Could you take some close up pics of your grill from front and side please. Thanks!

See this link. It's better than if I took pics because it's a pic of a chrome housing and a black grill. Ugly, but u can clearly see how it fits:

It fits, sort of.
You have to get the 3 springs that go to a bagger headlight bezel - two bottom springs and a top spring. They need to go in upside down from where they do on a bagger, though- the bottom springs will be about 120 degrees apart so they fit behind the plastic tabs on your headlight bucket, and the top spring will go on the bottom of the PM grille. The piece mounts up nicely, but you have to use a zip tie or some such to secure it on there, because the screw hole in this one doesn't match up with the tab on the bucket.
I have it on my Slim... but thinking about taking it off, so may entertain the thought of selling it and the springs... still kind of on the fence about it.
