I also just finished throwing on an upper and lower layover grille after seeing all those grilles in the grille thread. I bought something simple to spruce up the front end a bit.
I also threw on a hood protector.
Sorry, the pics are bigger than I thought they'd be:

"For those interested" was refering to that thread we posted in about sill protectors about a month ago.

Thanks guys. I'm very happy with it.

Screw me 05; I had crappy lil stick on sil protectors but only on the drivers and passengers side doors. There was nothing in the back at all.
As for the appearance of a bent bar, I scrutinized the thing after installing it, and everything is straight and true. Here's a different angle. Does this look any different?

now lets play 20 questions about that grill

where did you get it?

how much did it cost?

how long did it take to install?

was it an easy DIY?

possible to break something when installing it? (for example breaking tabs or something)

I've noticed pics of these horizontal billet type grilles often look odd. All I can tell ya is it's straight The bars won't bend either, at least not easily. It's solid stainless steel.

-eBay (grille4you)
-$94 solid stainless for combo (upper and lower grilles) plus a whack for shipping to Canada.
- about 15 minutes to install upper, and about the same for the lower (30 minutes for all)
- very easy DIY, and nothing to break (no tabs to deal with). It just sits right on top of the old grille and you bolt it from behind.
