I've been toying around with the idea of sticking with my stock bumper, adding Stillen's front lip, picking up a set of T-Rex Grilles and powder coating them black. The thing that would help me out the most is if someone could help me out with a Photoshop job and change the color of the grilles to a black from chrome. I don't know how involved it is to edit a photo or how much time it takes but I think it would help those like me caught between a full fascia or a lip. Not to mention I'm starting to want to keep my fog lights. I realize both grilles together cost a premium. Thanks for any help.

A premium to say the least... It will cost you $600 bucks to get that all done probably... It may be cheaper to have someone custom fabricate something for you for that much.

I think id contact the manufacturer or another billet shop. Fujita just made that black intake for someone... And if you are willing to lay down the $, they would be fools not to do it

Definitely worth the effort, something I never considered. Thanks

T-Rex offers most of their grilles in a black powdercoat option. It's just a special order, might take a little longer to get. We can get them from T-Rex no problem.

Is it a replacement or some cheap cover?? Also price and any pics??

I think a black grill that is similar to the grill on your (stillen) bumper would be a big seller!! "hint hint"

I think the grille on the front of the Stillen fascia is what several of us are looking for. I'd definitely buy it if it was available.

T-Rex has a couple of different options.. http://www.stillen.com/product...ltima

We have seen interest expressed on our fascia grille available separately, I'll definitely bring that to the next new products meeting, but can't confirm if it will be available in the future, or any timeline.

Thanks for the suggestions!
