Key Features

Engineered for both style and utility, the APS Polished Stainless Upper Billet Grille offers several key benefits:

• Distinctive billet design that enhances the vehicle’s front-end styling with a polished stainless steel finish.
• Constructed from high-quality stainless steel to resist rust, corrosion, and wear over time.
• Improves airflow to the engine bay, which can aid in cooling and potentially enhance overall engine efficiency.
• Provides a protective barrier against rocks, dirt, bugs, and other road debris, helping to preserve the radiator and other front-end components.
• Easy to maintain—simply clean with soap and water to restore its polished shine.
• Designed as an overlay grille, allowing for a straightforward installation process.
• Includes all necessary mounting hardware and detailed installation instructions for a hassle-free upgrade.

Construction & Design

The grille is expertly crafted from premium stainless steel, chosen for its strength, durability, and resistance to rust and corrosion. The polished finish not only adds a mirror-like shine but also provides a protective layer that helps maintain the grille’s appearance under various weather conditions. The billet design features evenly spaced horizontal bars that create a clean, modern look while maximizing airflow to the engine bay.

APS has engineered this grille to be both visually appealing and functional, ensuring it withstands the rigors of road use without compromising on style. The overlay installation design means the grille mounts directly over the factory grille opening, requiring minimal modifications aside from drilling for secure attachment.

Performance & Sound

While primarily a styling upgrade, the APS billet grille’s open design facilitates improved airflow to the engine compartment. Enhanced airflow can contribute to better engine cooling, which is beneficial during demanding driving conditions or hot climates. This can indirectly support engine performance and efficiency by helping maintain optimal operating temperatures.

Installation & Fitment

This grille is designed to fit Dodge Dakota models from 1997 through 2004 and Dodge Durango models from 1998 through 2003. Installation is straightforward but requires drilling to secure the grille firmly in place. The package includes all necessary mounting hardware and a detailed installation manual to guide you through the process. Basic hand tools are sufficient, and the overlay design means no major modifications to your vehicle’s front end are needed.
