Default Billet Grill

I'm looking into getting a billet grill for my Z. Do any of you guys have any suggestions on one? I want something that is not to flashy at a good price. Pictures would be nice, Thanks for the input.

I'm asking for the one off ebay from the wifey for X-mas. It's only 70 bux, and looks good to me. Knowing I might ditch it down the road, 70 bux isn't bad. Search "350Z billet grille" on ebaymotors.

If this is the one you want, don't get it. Not billet. Mine was too wide and scratched the sides of my grille opening.

the350z in the link that txsunset posted is photoshopped. i have that EXACT same pic with the stock grille. if their product is any good, then why can't they show a pic of their grille on an actual car?

Hi ECSTAZ, it's definitely a quality product....You do need to cut out the factory plastic grille....Cuts like butter,(soft urethane},
Included with the grille are 4 "L" brackets that screw into existing plates behind the original grille, then the grille bolts into the brackets......Simple,very easy to understand and clear instructions come with it also......Just because I wanted to be precise in installing it, it took around 30 to 45 minutes......If I had to do another one? 15 minutes tops.......the grille appears to be very solidly installed.....And I am more than confident that it will be the last one I install.
