sort of like that but it is black rather than dark gray.. the indents in the texture are a little larger than the flares.. if that makes sense.
you can barely tell that it's textured unless you get real close.
i hated my textured flares and handles but i dont mind the texture on the grill at all

FX4 you are indeed the master of black so ill tell you what im thinking.... you posted on my thread last night and asked to see my truck and i posted them i would very much like your input you have good taste! but everything on my truck is either glossy black or chrome and im thinking the saleen grill is too matte and will stick out and the suckie part is ive never seen this grill in person but give me your thoughts

ok, i will check ur other thread.. as far as the glossy black/chrome theme and adding a matte black grill.. i dont see that being a problem at all,a few guys on here have the Saleen grill on an XLT which has alot of chrome and i think it looks nice and clean.. ok.. im going to find your other thread..

I am picking mine up at Saleen when I get a chance...the company is about 10 miles from me.


^ I think the matte black finish looks great with the black truck. Did you put your emblem on?

yes i put the Saleen emblem on, i did get a little flack for it because some people look at it as a poser Saleen or whatever.

i look at it as a Saleen brand grill, just like any other aftermarket grills that have the companies logo on it.

Is there something behind the emblem...like a spacer or something? When I ordered mine, they said they had the grille and emblem, but did not have the emblem spacer and I had to wait for it to come in.
