I kinda like it... idk, its only $40 bucks... kinda tempting cuz i like how it looks rather than the original black plastic... and yes, its an overlay.... dont know how long it would last though, thats the thing.

They also have the diamond cut and billet grills on there web site. I checked out the install instructions and don't like the fact that you would see the ties that hold it on.

No problem. I do like them, just not how they install. I don't know why they don't put some sort of tabs when cutting them so that they could be bent back so that you would not see the ties behind the grill. It would not take much more to do.

go to your local home depot, lowes, or warehouse shop. and buy some mesh, they have different patterns and such. i paid about $15 and did it myself.
