Default Re: A New Grill and a New Look for the Crossfire

I'll try to respond to some of the questions that have been raised. First, developing something like this is sort of like trying to order pizza for a group and having everyone want something different on it. We have tried to balance economics with design. With regard to the center rib question, at this point we are able to offer this because we have been able to adapt and utilize the billet grill fabrication system. To add the center bar would require additional engineering and at this point we're not able to do that. I really don't know what the future will bring. If there is enough business to support it in the future, and the fabrication is workable that might happen.
As for resizing the lower grills, I'm not sure what that means. I assume you mean to fit inside and not be flush. The existing design worked well because it fits with the smooth upper look, and it also was practical. There are always different ways to do things and we do want to hear everyone's ideas. We are open but we have to start somewhere. I appreciate the interest in the grill and we will try to improve it where we can. We have invested a lot of time in trying to get the right fit so that it doesn't look like an aftermarket grill. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
