New Grille w/pics
 
Picked it up from CDC at the meet and greet this weekend. Easy install, only took about an hour. What do you think?

Looks realy good I like it, Now I will predict that you will soon become bothered with the honey comb lower grill as I did and will replace it too With a bar grill as I did. My Upper bar grill is not the CDC I got the Spec-D Tunning (Plastic) from V6Mustang. Now V6Mustang has a Lower (plastic) bar grill for $100 but I think it is the same one you can get from E-BAY as I did for $40 Its good Quality and will install in about 10 or 15 min. LOOK GREAT CDC is TOP Quality. Good Job

Well, I wanted the lower grill, but CDC does not make the lower grill(replacement in black) for the V6. I love this grill, it is black aluminum, very sturdy. I am gonna have to pick up the lower grill from somewhere else, because, as you said, I will be bothered by it.

One question for you, did you paint the supports behind the grill black so they wouldn't show through? That is one thing that is bothering me about mine, and I don't see yours showing through. I bought some flat black paint, but wanted to see what it looked like with keeping it the body color, I don't think I like it.

OH I forgot to predict that one Yes I too am bothered by that and I will be taking it back out and painting them Black my sig pic is low quality. A friend told me I have to get some Duplicolor Bumper paint that is flexible so it does not crack. I have been doing other mods like the lower grill shorty Int. Caliper painting new rims CDC black out so I just have not got around to doing it. But It does Stand Out and will be Painted Black soon.

Black paint is ready to go on, I wanted to see it without, but I am gonna paint it.

Tri-bar pony emblem is on backorder, they won't have any till the end of the month, but I am putting one on.
