i dunno, the whole thing just doesn't look right. IMO, the bars are too thick.

maybe it's just me. i'd like to see it in black.

That pic is just the mock-up grille to be used to make the mold so it's a prototype, not the final product, but definitely farther along than the 3D computer-gen'd images he was using. From my discussions with Daniel the grille is going to be black, probably with a chromed outer ring. It will be completely oem in fitment, using all the same mounting points and clips plus requiring no modification for the hood latch (notice the middle piece). The only thing you'll have to do is attach the sash to it with epoxy.
