Which Grille to Buy??

[RedAlert16]

Hey everyone so I need some help with your opinions... so I want to replace the upper front grille and I was originally going to get the roadruns grille (still probably will) but really really like just the stock grille with no center emblem, but that doesn't exist unless you do a DIY . So what are your opinions on the grilles?

Here is what I have going on now...(going to put the "koup" emblem on whichever to have it stand out )


Here is the Roadruns...


I really like this one BUT not sure how I am feeling about fiberglass :/ and the carbon fiber is so expensive and won't match the gloss black...


This is another I found, not my most fav but not bad...

If u like the stock grill without the badge, then that RRM one is the best bet. That's prob the one I'm gunna get soon since no other grille is that nice to me. The roadruns grille, I've heard people complain about the look and how it's too empty there and the stock horn is off center and u can rly see it or something but the RRM one looks pretty damn good..like u said tho, the CF one won't match so fiber glass would prob be best..

yea about the roadruns grille i would put the "forte" to make it look less empty and other should me how to relocate the form pretty easily. I have had horrible experiences in the paste with fiberglass so I'm just worried lol even though I agree and like that grille as well

^ lack of competition

I know right it is killing me

The RRM grille is the most like our stock grille, since it basically is just that, just badgeless. The Road Runs grille is fiber glass too so either way it wouldn't matter.

Ohh really I didn't know it was fiberglass, I thought it was plastic. That makes it a bit easier

I bought the RRM fiberglass one last week, still waiting for it to ship -__-

[GraveSideTears]

I also stuck on the fiberglass one and the last photo you posted. I'm looking to buy one but I'm I want to get RTI and painted to match. I'm in the process of talking to RRM about there grill

IF you are painting the grill then get the Fiberglass one to save
money. We do not do the painting or free shipping though, sorry. Note
this is the best fitting grill out there. Be careful of the EBAY one.
let us know. Thankx RRM

Cause I like the look of the bottom one, its cheaper, it comes painted, and some of the ebay ads have free shipping. I'm just stuck at the moment. I also just ordered Eyebrows for my headlights for $58 shipped and painted to match the Bright Silver. It's going to take a few weeks to get here.

Im painting mine gloss black its just making me mad bc it's been a week almost and it still hasn't shipped. I talked to them Tuesday and they said it should be shipped by the end of the day then. But I still have no tracking info.
