So basically we need three images..
I'll provide the images that I have used.

Also we have take consider of the dimensions of the images.

1) background_ii.png - background_ii.png: PNG image data, 1920 x 1080, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced
2) grub-16x9.png - grub-16x9.png: PNG image data, 1920 x 1080, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced
3) grub-4x3.png - grub-4x3.png: PNG image data, 1440 x 1080, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced

#### To customize grub-background make sure you are a root user.

Now then we shall proceed.

### 1. Firstly place background_ii.png in ```/boot/grub``` directory.

### 2. Then replace grub-16x9.png and grub-4x3.png images with our own choice of images in ```/boot/grub/themes/kali``` directory

### Make sure that the replaced images have the same name and dimensions as the original ***grub-16x9.png and grub-4x3.png***
