Default Changing The Grille In My Xfire

Hey Guys,

I was just wondering if any of you guys put some smoother grilles or painted them on your xfire. Currently mine is murdered out but I kinda wanna change it up for the summer. I love the mercedes grille wish somebody pulled that off soo I can see how it looks, well feel free to send any inputs or pics to this thread.

Thanks

Naw, that's one that was on ebay some years back. I kept the pic because it was so nicely done.

I've seen alot of guys blacken the grills. You can also find chrome covers that stick over the rakes on ebay.

Some have even gone as far as to use Neffy wrap or better yet, Hydrographics to get the carbon fiber look!

Heck, with the Hydrographics you can make it look like brushed steel, camo, wood or flames, whatever you can imagine!
