So, is it RIGID? Or will it flex at all? If I were to order one, I would paint the outer portion body color (charcoal like skyline's) and leave the inner mesh black. Do you see any issues getting paint to stick to it?

Thanks fellas.
its pretty rigid, not flexible at all..i like the quality, holding up real well! get compliments on it all the time

Well i just ordered the headlights too lol. ill put some pictures up of those when they come in! (gotta love those amazon gift cards for christmas) and skyline26, i was leery about taking the hardware out of the old one too, but i believe it was a 4mm socket fit over the end of the studs and threaded right out no problem. i agree though for a cheap grille it looks good and fits well! i am happy and would recommend it for sure. thanks again for posting up those pictures! helped me make my decision to get it!
