Billet Grill

[Mazda Lover]

Yeah, the top one is okay, just okay, the rest... well, let's just say they wouldn't even be a consideration for my vehicle.

That tears it... ordering that upper grille asap.

Very nice upgrade. Thanks for posting those.

Yeah, I like just only the upper grille as well. I think it's $20 plus $27 shipping.

IMO it doesn't blend with the black plastic very well, but whatever floats your boat.

It does when you have sexy LED turn signals.

No, I like yours too with all of them (the wife doesn't) but with the LED signals we wouldn't want the whole treatment. With just the upper portion it makes it look a little more refined/sophisticated. With the whole treatment the car just looks mean. Which is cool too, but again the LED signals wouldn't work well with it.

Just ordered btw.

I went to order the top piece for $20 on ebay and it shows $25 for S&H....yikes....Any better places to get this and have it shipped for less??

Nope... this is the only company that makes this grille for our cars currently. Not sure if they manufacture themselves... but they are the only ones selling. And $25 isn't that bad when you consider the size/weight of the item. UPS prices have gone ridiculous through no fault of sellers. Stupid OPEC.

Anywho $47 shipped for an aluminum grille is a steal... my mustang was like $150 when I was looking for one (now dirt cheap I know).

Ok...I ordered one...just the top piece....also, I saw at bottom of the ad that they will credit $15 for a good outdoor pic of the grille on....
Thanks for the input on whether it was a good deal 07LiquidCX7...I feel better now.....
I will post pics the moment I get it....

No, it's $40 for the billet 2 pc. upper grill. I like them but I like the honeycomb desing that comes stock better. I just don't like the way the black plastic grill pieces are fading. I am thinking about taking all the plastic pieces form the grill out and having them chrome dipped. Does anyone on the east coast do chrome dipping or will I have to ship the pieces out west?

Use Back to Black every other time you wash the car and you will never have faded plastic grille.

Gray Ghost...It was $47 total for two piece top grille....weird...they had same one for $40 too....confusing so I ordered the $20 of course! ;] My invoice was $47($20 for 2 piece upper and $25 S&H and $2 insurance....

Mine come in today. Looks awesome, now just have to wait for the car to come back from the body shop. It has been repaired and is painted... they just ran out of time to clear it today.

Great Wendy! Now, PLEASE, do not fail to post those pics. I'm strongly considering your approach.

I'm sure she won't forget the pics since theres 15 dollars in it for her.

Same here...

 

[cruzdreamer]

Hoping to get it today and if the rain holds off I will take pics right away...are you kidding...I would not forget to post pics....I'm so impatient and love to share even if it was a bad choice on the portholes....you will see that they are removed. (Darn right....$15 bucks for pics(but they are specific on how many pixels etc....):]
If it comes today it will either be around 10:30 or 4 pm...stay tuned....

 

[cruzdreamer]

Ok here it is...

I absolutely love it...very cool in person...not cheap...the real metal deal and perfect! I have yet to actually secure it since I am a little confused on the install....help anyone....I will ask hubby though...
Worth it if you are considering it! Rainy day here...sorry!
