looks awesome, i bet when done and at shows, people will know somethings different but it will take a while to point out that its the grill opening. oh and i bet it does help airflow over just pulling the plate section out on the normal TA bumper.

I used a Formula bumper cover and cut a bigger hole to expose more of the IC. Plus I wanted to maintain foglights still.



Before I put the lights in.

OP, I don't think it looks bad at all. If you paint it black or what ever, it won't look bad at all.

Packy,
That looks pretty good too. To me, again, if it was black it would be perfect or had some mesh. Either way both are awesome as is.
