Looking into grill options

I wanted to know what my options were for grill replacement. Looking to go aftermarket and can't seem to find something I like. PLus are the ebay grills as crappy as the look in pics. Post some links or actual pics if you have anything. It's a 01' AE and I like the mesh/diamond look better than the billet look. Thanks guys.

I would recomend the Street Scene grill shown above, as soon as I get the money I am going to get mine powder coated, heres a pic of a dry fit on a Black 01 GLE



the lower grill will be back further in the opening.

That's cool now who has the best price on the Street Scene grill? I def. want one but I'm gonna powdercoat it black. Also can you cut out factory grill behind it? I haven't looked yet and just wondered since pics make it look like people are leaving it there. Thanks again!

You will have to shop around for the best price. These grilles hardly ever is on ebay, but keep an eye out in the 5th classifieds. Once in a while someone sells a set.

As far as cutting the factory grille, check out the link ZIPPIN provided.

I haven't compared prices, but I really like the Grille-tech. If I do any more exterior mods I will get just the lower portion for my Max

Sry i dont mean to hijack but this question really isnt worth making another thread but can the SS lower grille work with a stillen classic lip, i know 808max-spec has the ae lip but it looks like it isnt attached the same way as the stillen.

Again...check out the link provided by ZIPPIN. Not sure if KPazzo is still an active member. Just by looking at the pics the classic lip fits differently than the AE, but the lower grille should fit. I'm assuming fittment may be a little snug. On the other hand, I have 1/8 inch of play.

Just another FYI, 2kayznmaxima has the touring lip and the ss lower grille.
