Default Are these good solutions to my problem???

Okay so far I have not had any luck with finding a stock grille that is not a million dollars, so I am going the EBay route and would like to know if anyone has purchased, likes or even knows about theses two grilles I am looking at purchasing? Can anyone give me a little information or feedback on either one because I didnt even know about any other grilles other than the stock one that came on my car unitl a few months ago. They are both on Ebay and resonable prices but are they even worth buying? Are they cheap looking when you get them? Are they easy to put on? Just asking because I dont know any better.... and I am tired of riding around with no grille. Thanks!

Forget what I'm saying, as I just saw your other post. But what I say still stands, the other grilles are really tacky looking compared to this one. That's just one mans opinion but I'm not often wrong when it comes to this. LOL
I am not a fan of those grilles, the mesh one has a too large surround on it and the billet grille scratches the paint and looks like **** in my opinion.
If you go to this post (click) you can find what I would say is the nicest after market grille, you can buy all three pieces or just the upper grille and the price includes shipping. What the price of the upper grille is on its own is unknown at the moment. There are supposed to be 20+ members buying so the new price is a bit less now. Go for it.
This grille could be cheaper than an used OEM grille, you could maybe swap it for an OEM grille if you got the deal that suits you.

You can go to my Gallery and see pictures of the billet grill. I installed mine in 2007 and have been totally happy with it. I think it looks a lot better than the stock grill.

Make sure that the top and bottom attachment points (8 total) are all there. The bottom ones, 4 of these, are easily broken or weakened. If they are weakened they will break of very soon. If they break of the grille will flap around.
Ask specifically how many attachments are still in place.

When you remove a grille you should remove the top screws (4), move the top forward so your hand can go down the gap and push each bottom clip down to release it. People tend to yank it straight of after removing the screws and this breaks the clips.
