Question for those with the Amuse front
Did you put in any type of grill or just leave it open. I do not have a intercooler to fill the gap so what do you think would look better. Open or grill.

I'm going to install a grill on mine since I can't stand seeing everything behind the bumper. Just don't know how to mount it since the shine amuse replica I got doesn't have any tabs to secure the grill on to.

I need a black mesh grill, but it doesn't look that bad. It's livable.

^ LOL... that's a totally misleading pic. The center area is so dark, it looks fine. However, it looks really empty in normal lighting.

^ It's a good pic dude, dont get me wrong (the car looks hot). My point is, the hole section looks totally empty without a gril. By taking a pic that shows that area DARK... it just reaffirms that a grill is needed (as long as it's not some cheasy/cheap grill material or chrome for that matter).
