i would've got one for the ap1 but the grill doesn't sit flush to the exterior portion of the bumper like it does on other cars. still a hell of a lot better than oem...

I was wondering how the black Grillcraft looked on the sebring.

Just for comparison here's my S with the silver GrillCraft.

I personally think that it doesn't look that good and only restricts airflow... :/

You obviously restrict airflow to some degree with any aftermarket grille. However, I didn't notice any change in the temp gauge at street or highway speeds. Granted, it's not the most accurate device for measuring temps. However, again, protecting the radiator and condenser were more of a concern IMO. YMMV, of course. Down here AC is a must.

restricted airflow...barely...never gotten a temp spike either...and the best part aside from the look is that it keeps all the junk out of the engine bay (ie: leaves, leaves and more leaves)

I have one and love the fact that it hides my aftercooler. Makes things a little more sleeper. Originslly bought it to protect my CAI but then went SC and never looked back.
