who makes this grill?

post #7 in this thread. I've seen so many similar ones but this is the only one that looks perfect. I PM'ed the member but am too impatient.

The grill you are referring to appears to be painted. You can find a similar grill here:

Thanks Silver but i've seen the one in your link and though it looks similar to the one i'm searching for it doesn't look as good. Hopefully the member will reply to my PM but theres a chance he is no longer on these boards.

I just got the grill and put the two parts together(grill and star) when done I noticed a nice little gap between the top of the star and the bottom of the upper grill frame. Emailed 55tech and waiting for a response. Not sure if it's happened before but definitely not a grill I'd install on my car. Aside from that it looks great, hopefully they'll just replace it as I think it'll look great on the car.

Just checking, did you receive the replacement grill yet? Would like to see the installed pic.

No i haven't. I was given the run around for a couple of weeks and now have to decide if to install this one or return it which i hate dealing with packaging etc...

I may just install this one and see if the gap is noticeable. Needless to say i would never deal with 55tech again.

I installed the same grill and install the dealer emblem that lights up and I love it
