Default got Grilled...

after reviewing all of the different grills, it's really confusing on which one is good....

I think i like the diamond shape silver grill... but there are all different kind of materials, Aluminim, billet, steel.....

Does it matter what the grill is made of? or just look for the best finish?

there are so many diff grill on ebay with different price!!

Anyone has experience with a good grill?

$44.99 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2434894166

$109 billet, http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2434843224

$114, street scene, http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2435183368

thanks, it is the street scenes grille in the chrome finish. If you plan on buying the street scenes grille make sure you tell them what finish you want becasue there is two kinds.....a dull stainless steal look and a chrome look (like mine).

Yes it comes with like 12 black clips that are very easy to install. There is two ways to install from the top just reach in and clip what you can and then if you cant reach certain parts then you can go from under the car just have to remove a couple of screws to get around the plastic that is under the car. All in all its very easy maybe 15 mins max install time.

Default Grille Tech

If you don't want to pay that much for a grille then I think Grille-Tech grilles are good. I just ordered mine from them for $50 shipped.

Check out the grille/front cover on the following link:

(Select Style King on the left hand side)

I really like it, but it's expensive.
