Grille-Tech also sells the Diamond (JDM) style, for much cheaper, I still say go with Grille-Tech. They've always treated me exellent!

Installed the CM center grill around Christmas. Very easy install and very happy with the look and quality. Installed the side vents (the real ones) a few weeks ago. Once again easy install (just a little messy cutting the faux vents with the Ryobi). Good look and fit.
From the number of threads that have covered this subject I think each manufacturer makes a good product. Its a matter of looks and who you think gives you the best deal.

update on my rusted grille from grille-tech. they responded to my email and stated that although i only had my grille for a little over 3.5 months, that their warrenty is only 90 days against rusting. i did the best i could to care for the grill and kep it out of road salt etc, but to no avail. Although their email ddnt seem to make much sense, they stated that because their grills are double powder coated, that they cannot warranty longer than 90 days because of elements. i would think that the double powdercoating would help the grille withstand the elements. they product was a good fit, and i feel that i may have just had a bad one out of the bunch, becuase most people seem happy with them. but because of their inability to stand behind their product after such a short time i would not deal with them again.

I spent about 5 bucks on enough rain-gutter screening material to make 15 side vents.

well i feel a little better now that i see someone else has had my problem, no offense canucks2k, but it just bothers me that in my old car i had a 2 dollar piece of gutter helmet that looked as good at 2 years, as the day i installed it, but then i pay all this money for grille tech and end up regretting it.
