I'm not really preaching "extruded" but it's underrated. I've had no problems with the extrusion and if you don't like it, rip it off and spend $400. Use DIY PT's advice for removing exterior door guards (heat gun/hair dryer). It's all 3M RedLiner tape. Most grille extrusions are 3/8" half-round. I used a 5/16" L-shaped door guard material, cost under $20. I chose this one because it's more subtle and wraps around the leading edge making it look less add-on and preventing dirt and water from coming under it. However in bright sunlight, it doesn't photograph well.
