Have you considered maybe throwing some vinyl stripes on the chin instead of painting them on there? I'm sure it'd be cheaper and would match up with the ones you already have painted.

I've been pulled over for my no-plate, local cops with nothing better to do lol paid the fine and still kept it off.

Is that the eleanor honeycomb grille you put on? Looks ****..
Yes it's the eleanor grill, thanks! Well, the CDC will cover the bottom part, but all you have to do is purchase the CDC pre-painted blue from AM, then just have the middle of the chin painted with the same white stripes. It won't be the most cost-efficient... BUT it'll look great.

I just realized he still has the stock grill.

You could hide your fogs behind a billet grill.

Or just do an emblem delete and billet grill from AM.

I'm looking to mount my fogs behind a billet grill and smoke them so it's harder to see them unless they're on.

Lower billet grill from AM is also a nice touch.

So there's the vinyl option and there's having the chin spoiler painted. I don't know if I'd like it having had the entire thing custom painted-- Mayble used to be a plain vista blue when she was a virgin. I gotta think I'm gonna go painted-

It seems like I have 3 primary colors-- blue/white and black- -with the chrome of course, but I looked at the raxiom pre-painted headlights from AM, and I just don't think they'd look better.

As far as the fogs behind a billet grille go, I really like the contrast of the fogs on my setup-- I've got the eleanor honeycomb enroute from AM now.. can't wait to see what it will look like, but can't say I'm not nervous.

I'll post new pics of the grille when I get it on this weekend-- the chin spoiler pic may be a bit longer.

Thanx, fellas.

So, how the hell do I mount the fogs behind the billet grill? I won't give up the fogs-- like them too much. I do prefer the upgraded grill over the honeycomb though. I was thinking eleanor style behind a billet grill...
