I'll be ordering this grill next weekend and putting some black mesh behind it. I'll let everyone know how it fits.

What about the water transfer that AMGfan did? Do most paint shops know or have the equipment to do that type of work?

+1! I ended up painting mine myself. Came out killer. You gotta use the adhesion promoter (Pep Boys) so the primer/ paint sticks to the chrome. Otherwise peel & flake city. I'll post pics after Elite Performance Ltd. (teaser) is done with my car.

I just bought my plastic black grill about 2-3 weeks ago. I told the guy if he has more I kno a lot of members on the forum are interested. He e-mailed me back few days later and I was on vacation and he wanted to set up a group buy. I e-mailed him a few days ago about it and I got no reply back.

I'm using my blackberry now but I have all his info at home so I'm gonna try to reach him again. I found him thru searching old threads and a member mentioned his ebay name.

Same here the guy won't respond to my emails...

****And for those looking to get the above grille in CF from taiwan, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY...

I ordered that thing and the clear coat is bubbled and peeling away when I opened the box.

And here's the best part, it will cost me another $120 to get it shipped back and forth again to get another one... I'm just having it re-cleared for $35 and hopefully it will look acceptable.

I tried emailing the guy as well and haven't had a response. This was about 3 weeks ago.
