I've been throwing the grill idea around as well, just don't know what it'll look like. And I;ve been wanting to get my 17's painted too, where did you get yours done? Or did you do it yourself?

I think the consunsus is to paint them black or match them to the body color.

I dig it, man. Maybe paint the grilles themselves black, too? Or get the ss/tc grills? That would be set the car off, in my opinion. To me, the grey grilles look kind of weird as it is now with the evo mod

Yup, same exact design. Just pop 'em right in. I think it would look nice. I plan on getting those grilles as well. So much nicer than the other Cobalt ones.

even though tc grilles look pretty cool id say save your money for something else instead. i think your grilles right now look fine the way they are!

maybe colormatched headlights next with black crossbar and red bowtie! i could whip you out a photoshop of it if you like (minus the headlights, those are impossible to make look right)

well the tc grilles i do want, but it's not my immediate priority. I would appreciate a photoshop, to see what it would look like. As far as the headlights, I still don't even have HIDs lmao. I'm slackin on that. But color matched looks sick IMO, but not quite sure I've seen any balt so red?
