Check with DHL, they are usually cheaper than UPS and FedEx, and offer worldwide service...

I would have sworn I saw a black srt-6 roadster with Don's grills on it on the 405 near S. Coast Plaza today - hmmm. Whose ever car it was, it was nice.

I got my top grill on and it is like a having a new car.

Here are some pictures that don't even begin to do the grille justice; it is much more attractive in person. I kept the slotted VMaxx lowers because I preferred the recessed appearance of the OEM setup.


Well, the system won't let me upload photos; it keeps returning "technical errors" messages. I'll try some other way...

I tried making them smaller. That helped. Here are a few.

This is pretty funny. I told my wife (who was putting along in her Escape Hybrid) that I would be able to find out who's Srt-6 that was on the freeway! This forum always comes through. As soon as I make it through the holidays, let's definitely hit the Spectrum on Sat. morning.

Looks nice, but I must agree too many bars. I would use less than half that many. I think too that three pcs is too much also. Leave the two bottoms ones off and a much simpler grille would look better imho.

This is an old old thread, some one at the start said it made the OEM grille look like it was from a minivan.
Sooo if he can say that.....
I have always hated this grille, it looks cheap and nasty, nothing but bent aluminum bars. Billet makes it sound fancy, I can find these 'billets' at the Home Depot, how fancy is that?
There, I have always wanted to say that.
I think I'll add this to the 'I'm sick of ' thread.

We have to be careful what we say, you will notice I was really diplomatic in my post.
It reminds me of the tread on escalators.

I'd love that grill on either a mini van or a trash can, is that better?

On a serious note, its not my taste and I really don't plan to spend my time on here walking on egg shells to pacify the "senior members". No offense, but I have the right to speak my opinion.

If you were being facetious, my apologies for it going over my head.

I agree.
I say what I feel and they are an eyesore to my eyes. Say what you mean and mean what you say is my motto.
What's a few broken eggs anyway.

Can't pull the photo over on my mobile, but the grille language for DaimlerChrysler at tbe time was to reflect the grille on the Ghia prototypes of the 1950s. For the Crossies, the execution failed miserably. Strange as it almost worked on the late generation 300.

So I won't begrudge anyone who goes mesh or billet. These are our choices and if our maker himself calls us to account for it we can bloody well tell him to butt the h3ll out. Not to mention the lowly titans of this board lmfao.

No need to worry if you don't like them. They haven't been available for 4 years now!
