I didn't see anyone post this yet, so I thought I could help..
Here's a full 'stock' ROM containing FRG83G (2.2.2). I simply applied the latest OTA to my stock FRG83D and then did a backup of system.img/boot.img, and then created a ROM with my kitchen. You'll need to flash these with a custom recovery image.
USE THIS FIRST ONE ONLY FOR GINGERBREAD UPDATE! READ INFORMATION BELOW REGARDING HBOOT BEFORE YOU UPDATE TO GINGERBREAD!
Stock, unrooted, no modifications (comes with updater-script, compatible with Clockwork Recovery, system and boot untouched!):

The following ones CANNOT be used for an OTA update:
Stock, with root (comes with updater-script, compatible with latest Clockwork Recovery, boot.img modified):

The following are modifications made to the stock ROM, with update-script:
Rooted, de-odexed, trackball wake: http://www.mediafire.com/?1ftaf6eg30ma81p
Rooted, de-odexed, trackball wake, busybox: http://www.mediafire.com/?90rcduzsbm5bz77
Rooted, de-odexed, trackball wake, busybox, Apps2SD, Cache2SD, zipaligned: http://www.multiupload.com/3VP7Z2YIBS
I'm not going to do any more mods to this, but if you wish to customize this ROM to your liking then use something like my HTC Android Kitchen. To set up, please read the FAQ posted in the kitchen thread.

How to get your device ready for the latest OTA update (a.k.a. Gingerbread)
You'll need the following:
I have attached below the stock recovery image that is used for FRG83G so that you can easily flash the next OTA update (Gingerbread). OTA updating will not work successfully if you did mods like de-odexing or altered/removed the system apps, or wrote to one of the files in the boot.img. Therefore, use only the UNMODIFIED, UNROOTED 'stock' ROM above to perform an OTA, in combination with an eligible recovery image. You can always revert to your desired custom recovery image easily, as long as you have root.
To flash the stock recovery from fastboot (reset N1 while holding down trackball):
1) Go to PC and open an ADB shell
2) Copy recovery.img to the same folder as your ADB session
3) type: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Or from a terminal app:
1) Copy flash_image (see attached) to /system/bin using Root Explorer or similar, and set permissions to allow execute
2) Copy recovery.img to your SD card
3) type: su
4) type: flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

How to get your device ready for the latest OTA update (a.k.a. Gingerbread)
You'll need the following:
- An untouched ROM - which contains odexed system image and an unmodified boot.img (see the unmodified 'Stock' ROM shown above, not the modified ones)!
- Flash the latest HBOOT to prepare for Gingerbread update
- A stock recovery image (however, if you use Clockwork or Amon_RA you need signature verification turned OFF when it reboots to recovery!)
- The actual Gingerbread update. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=965478
