I started by bolting the grill on first, the filler pieces above and below the grill,the upper part of one fender then the other, then the lower halves. Bolt the fenders on loosely until you have all of the parts on and then tighten everything up. I also had the grill painted before installing. I painted the mating surfaces of the fenders, bolted them together and then painted the entire front clip after it was hung on the truck. I wanted to avoid scratching painted panels. I cut "U"s in the fender welting and slid it in before I tightened the bolts down. It a lot easier than fighting with the welting as you're assemblihg the parts.
