I figured some people would say that but I really like the change. Looks even better in person.

I'll give ya that, I have seen things online I didn't like but when I saw in person looked great. This could pretty easily be one of those things. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Not bad, but it would look better if they could make the screw holes a little less obvious. Maybe they could put some more holes around the screw hole, to hide them better. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> Looks purty good! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I have the same chrome side panels on my pewter TA. They look really good in person especially when the car is clean.

Not much they can do about the design. If I had them I'd paint those solid areas black to look like the rest of the grille that's actually open.
