Lower Billet Grill

Got my lower billet grill installed this morning, but I'm not sure if I like it with the factory grill. What do you guys think? I know the picture isn't the greatest, but it'll have to do until I get my camera back...

It looks good but IMO you need to replace the upper grille for it to look symetrical.I love the billet grilles by the way and will soon be doing the same.

That's exactly the setup I have on mine and I think it looks just fine! I know I wouldn't bother changing the stock grille for a billet grille! Some of them (I don't which brands?) look a bit crappy to me!

I have a similar one and while i love it, wasn't too keen on how it looked with the grill.
Don suggested i paint it black to match the car and it looks MUCH better now! It blends in quite well.

So maybe paint it?

Try blacking out every other bar. It looks much better then.

I might just try painting it and see how it looks. I've got some gray primer that is almost the same color of my car, so I'm gonna start with that to see how it would look color-matched. If I don't like it, I'll take some black electrical and tape off every other bar to see how it looks then.

Thanks for the tips
