Default Which color Grill???

Ok, so im thinking of possibly getting the RKSport grill because i do like the look of it, just not into the logo design that's on it. I also do like the SLP grill too, but leaning more towards the RKsport style.

Anyway's, what color should i go with....

Carbon Fiber?
Black? (probably wont fill in the logo with this color)
Pewter (same color as the car w/ logo filled in)?

Or forget these, and get the SLP grille???

You should put the door-sills on your mod list.
Their really nice, I've had a set in my car for along time. And every time I open my door I marvel at their beauty!

Neither!! fill in the mounting holes and smooth out you bumper and go on ebay and order some stailless mesh and put it behind it. Like this....

Well you can grab and yank but you need it off to put a new one on, so you'd be better off just taking it off. And to smooth yur bumper out like I did it's quite involved especially if you don't know anything about body work. I do body work for a living so it was gravy for me. Be better off having a good shop do it for ya.
