I was actually thinking about buying a set for my car, but decided to wait. Here's what I was looking at: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/05-06...Q5fAccessories

i just seen those, but didnt know what it meant with the installation process. i guess you got to cut the factor grill complelty out then drill in this one?

That's just for the top lol. I have had mine for over a year and it still looks new. Look at the material differences though when you do buy one. The ebay ones are cheaper for a reason.

Yeah, I think there is no upper grill that will really be bolt on since there does not seem to be a place where to bolt. But if I'm not mistaken, I think I saw a How-To somewhere in here about installing an aftermarket grille

The one I have is made by Carriage Works and has directions for install.

If you don't find a billet grill, get an SS/TC grill here...

I paid $220 CDN shipped to my door, but that was for the upper and lower. You have to cut the top shroud off the grill, cut a couple of clips on the centre crossbar, and poke a couple holes yes.
