so crazy how such a small mod makes a whole lot of a difference. No disrespect but if i saw the ride prior to the Matte black grill i probably woulda hated on it. Good job

Here is a before and after. Thanks again to Trinity, great prices and fast shipping. As you'll see, after I removed the lower meshing, it appears I am missing another plastic piece....could anyone help out with this....the circled red part is what I am talking about.

Other than that, let me know your thoughts. I really like the difference.


Before:

After:

As for the missing piece, does anyone know where I can get this:

Wonder how those mesh grill will look if you sprayed them gloss outer and matte inner? Anyways, looks much better now.

What did you do with the old grills?
