No my grille shell had tabs on the inside that held the original bolts and I just replaed the old rusted ones with new bolts and the insert has sheet metal flanges I made to bolt it on. Do you have pics of your grille shell from the back side? if you do post them and let me see what you've got

That grille is awesome. It'll catch a lot of attention that's for sure.
