The grill from Crutchfield is really good. I'm very satisfied with mine as well. I just bought a bowtie from ebay last night to go on it!

I decided to put electrical tape on my billet grill to see how it looked black and I have to say I love it! The powdercoating on it has started to chip off so I'm just going to repaint it all black.

That does look good, but I dont think it would work to well on a black car, I need something that will pop out.

As for how it mounts. I would have to have one that will either mount to the fog light brackets, or to the upper/lower/outer bumper, not the inner grill section. I will be cutting that part out shortly for my FMIC. Thats the reason I want a grill, to kind of hide the intercooler.

Well, I thought I had bought a bowtie emblem that would fit, but it doesn't I think this emblem was for a 69 Camaro.

Got a larger pic? How was the fit on your ebay grill?

I'd like to have my fmic kind of hidden by a grill, for that sleeper look.

Had to drill holes in the grille, paint some screws black, then just screwed into the facia all at once. Didn't predrill any holes in fiberglass of facia so as allow for a good, tight fit. Used rubber washers to serve as spacers and offer some give as well.

Is there any way to mount the grill to the upper and lower section of the bumper instead of the middle part with the bowtie on it? I plan on cutting this section out and probably deleting the fog lights too, for better airflow to my FMIC. I want a grill to kind of hide the FMIC and clean things up a bit.
