Just ordered a set of the Lund stainless from AZ Truck www.aztrucks.com/product.asp?Product=155
They look just like the cloud-rider fronts to me

I got mine from member "EricBu12" They are four individual black pieces that fit nicely into the openings in the grill. He supplied enough regular nuts & bolts, but I swapped them out with smooth head carriage bolts, and wing nuts on the inside. Now very easy to remove / install if needed, and theft proof with out damaging them beyond use. I think price was around $30....PM him for info.

Has Lund changed their design on the Lund black Cold Fronts? Mine has about 6 little clips that hook onto the inside of the grill. I actually had the dryer at a carwash blow one out. Are the Cloud-Riders really 170?

Lund plastic looks better, IMO...and is cheaper! It's a "black out" look as opposed to brushed aluminum look on the stainless.
I like Moose10's idea...black oxide coated bolts and wing nuts!

Home-made
Somedays, I either have too much time on my hands, or not enough cashflow 
. Anyway, after deciding that I could make a set of winterfronts similiar to the Lund's, I dug through some scrap wood paneling and cut out a set to fit into the recess's in the hood. I put two 1/4 inch "T-nuts" through each one (drilled holes from inside, to match up with the honeycomb grill) and use a piece of 1/2 x 1/4 wood stick that I put a 1/4" bolt through into the t-nuts. I then painted the paneling black. If I remember to, I will take a pic of it in a few weeks, when it gets/stays cold enough to put them back on. I guess, if someone wanted too, they could rip it off, but with the bolts holding it on from the inside of the hood, they would end up breaking the paneling.

Yes they are, I bought them about 4 1/2 years ago. I tried buying a backup set a couple of years ago, but supplier said company was forced out of business by DC for copyright infringement. These are like GOLD now.
