Default Bentley - style replacement grille

http://www.trexbillet.com/index.php?...=101&dealer=no

Above is web site with photo of my car with new grille manufactured by T-Rex Grilles.
All three pieces are polished stainless steel and are made for easy attachment.
I met them at the LA car show and loaned them my car for development. As you see,
it is now a standard part for them {as this past week). I am out of the loop except to let you know about it.
I do not know price points yet. (Mine was no charge since I gave them use of my car for two weeks.)
I would think that a group buy is possible, and I'd be happy to ask them about that next week.
As for design, I'm personally thrilled.. By the way, note how they made the bezel to follow the outline of the wings.
With computer-controlled lazers, all is possible. The company is located in Corona, CA, and I'm in LA, near the Grove, a 1 1/2 hour drive each way.

Not bad looking - I don't know if I'd put them on mine - the jury is still out on that one.
Does the temperature sensor just poke through the mesh?
Dare I ask how much?
Is it a one-off, or do they manufacture it?

RJ, Thanks for doing this. It's great to have options, isn't it? You think they can offer the option of one with a chrome center rib?

I'm with you FP. I'd like to see it with the center rib. To me, since the 'spine' of the crossfire runs all the way from front to rear, it almost needs it.
