Default Need grille help!!!!
Hey guys I need to get my grille taken care of because teh hideous holes from removing the stock one is really bugging me. I went to a body shop 15 mins ago and they looked at it and said it would be $600-700 to fill the holes and paint it. For those of you that have had this done how much was it for you> and for the rest of you show me some pics of your aftermarket grilles. I need to make a decision soon. Thanks!
