2k1 grill, where to buy ???

Hey guys, what's the best place to purchase the 2k1 main grill and valence ?
I 've check the Stillen website and the main is 108$ and the valence is 75$ do you think that these are good price, I though I had seen the main grill for 90$ and the valence for 50$ but I cant remember.

Mod fever doesn't seem to stop.

Cheers

if you plan on doing this you have to cut out the orginal grill (main) and there is no going back! the main grill is going to be around $100.

forgot to add, you can place the grill over the OEM as well

You do NOT need to cut the main grille. As many people have done it after I was the first to secure the mother without cutting the main grille.

All you have to do is fit it to the trim piece and then cut a small tab off the grille you put on to get the trim piece to fit on there.

Hey redstradic, I already have a custom grill on since 2 years, you dont need to cut the original, but since mine start to look pretty bad, I guess it will soon be time to change it.

Hey Y2KSESteve, do you have both the upper grill and the valence ? If yes
I will give you a call in 5-10 minutes.

Thanks for responding.

That's one more gift for the max.

for you guys that are not cutting out the grill!

to place the aftermarket grill on, are you guys taking off the entire front bumper or are you just basically placing the aftermarket grill right on top with making a few adjustments to the aftermarket grill.

Look like I said, you remove the front bumper, and then remove the screws that hold the TRIM around the main grille. Then attach the Street Scenes grille to the trim piece. Then try to fit the trim piece back on the front bumper, you will see where it is not fitting because the SS grille is in the way on the edges, besically cut/snap those edges off and the Trim will not fit over the Bumper like it did when you took it off. And screw the trim back on from the back and your done. BAMM!
