Help with Grille decision..

Looking at getting a new grille. Already have a PTM surround to put it in but not sure what I want. Here are my choices...FX2, FX4 Hbar or Saleen. I really like the Saleen and the FX2 comes in second. Needs to be black or dark in color.

I am a proponent of the honey comb so my choice would be to PTM the honeycomb and get some white and chome overlays and put em int he PTM surround.

Ditto what Blue150 said.

Also I think on your truck PTM bumpers and a Saleen grille would look awesome.

I'm a big fan of the FX4 Hbar grille... Most people remove them but I think it looks strong...

That's for sure. $150 + $80 shipping! Crazy. But it's not a grille everyone else is sporting. plus it looks tough. I Like the FX2 but everyone has them..good price though. FX4 stock...everywhere. Want to be a little different. Can you send me some pics?
