All is well, the grill has been installed.

Once modded, the gaps become insignificant because of the angle you view them at. When it was unmodded the angle was shallow so the gaps were very pronounced. Now they don't even show up.

I am extremely happy with how it turned out.

Pretty much follow the Joe Danger thread guide to a tee, you don't need to shave down the middle vents though if you are on a 2006-2007 bumper (since there is nothing in the way.

Dremel off the screw mounts, and the bottom clip mounts. JB weld the chrome in place. I cut a little extra at the top corners where he did, it helped allow the grill to sit closer in. Use all the top clips on the grill, make sure you line up that little hood vent under the grill.

The top clips are a little tricky to get in. I suggest keeping the top plastic piece (from under the hood) in your hand and attach the grill to it with some help, slap the clips in. Then go use the top and grill now combined, to mount it to the car.

The only improvement I can do now is to zip tie the bottom of the grill to the bumper to keep the bottom of the grill from rattling with the bumper, and hold chrome pieces as close to the body as possible.

Note: I have not zip tied the bottom yet, but will in the coming days. It won't significantly change the fitment except for reducing the bottom gap slightly.
