I have been thinking about a grill on my car too. I like the metallic colored ones.

a. Do the screens corode?

b. Does it restrict airflow to the radiator etc.?

c. Does it distrupt aerodynamics?

Thanks dudes.

Axcilla's (Coastal Metals) is also the one I have installed. Looks great, received lots of compliments. I like it.

i got mine at grill-tech, from ebay.. the guy did a great job making it. it fits nicely. some people have complained that it took him forever to ship it, but hey, he tells you that upfront and the price isn't bad. i think i only paid 70 for the front and the two side air vents...

two colors, silver and black i think....

[B]Hi, marc!

I've already got a Coastal Metals grill (black) sitting in my room waiting.... there was a group buy about 2 months ago where it was $30 off, so I couldn't resist... The quality look good, obviously I haven't installed it yet.

Here is the finished install of the Coastal Metal grills, Injen CAI intake and the Triple FIAMM horns. You can't see the horns but they are back there.

As I mentioned above, I only have the CM grill, so I can speak for the others, but mine would come off with two simple screws. You can see them to the sides in the picture above. BTW, the screws have an allen (hex) head.
