I'm thinking about getting a new grille for my 08' Coupe 2.5S. Here's a picture of the car, any suggestions...?


Thanks.

do you want a mesh or billet grill? I'm a fan of the mesh, so i have C-mod's:

There have been some negative criticisms of the shape and construction of the C-mods, but I think it would look good on any dark-colored car as long as it's color-matched


I was also thinking about T-Rex's mesh grille (which also comes in black):

T-Rex's grill costs quite a bit more, so that's one reason why i went with c-mod.

I just took my grille to Maaco and had them paint it for about $25. A lot easier than painting it myself, and I won't have to worry about the paint chipping any time soon.
