Default GRILLE

I know there have been many posts about grilles on here, but for 60 bucks, i want honest inputs from everyone on here. Is this thing any good or no?

Probably a little late for a reply since the auction has ended. But "honest input"... I hate it. Just don't care for the chrome grill look. Plus that perticular one doesn't look like it fits for crap. Notice the pieces on either side of the running lights ( between the running lights and the ends of the grill ), they are all crooked. Not even lining up straight. You would think they would attempt a descent install for a sales picture if it could be done better.

Personally I am rather bias toward the center fog light grills.

the ones that are the whole grill are generally a better fit. the inserts never fit exactly right. I have inserts only because that is the only way they made it and it was the exact look I was after. SSE grill inserts - black chrome

Just remember you get what you pay for, that goes for anything. I would not take the risk of getting a pos product for my baby, while knowing that it will most likely be bad quality.

I agree with you there. I just can't see spending about 200 bucks on a grille with i can spend about 60-100 and then the rest on go-fast parts [sm=gears.gif]
