Just a suggestion. Trenz has a nice grille. I put one on my car (98 Rosewood Max). I've seen trenz grilles on white maximas and they look pretty good.

I actually have the S5 grille already. I didn't install it yet because I am having second thoughts, thats why i posted this poll. If I decide not to use it, i'll let you know.

Since you have the S5 grill already, have you ever considered just painting that body color?
That would look nice, and be unique.

I agree the S5 body color should look a lot better than the chrome look. Maybe the Trenz might even look ok if it was body color painted.

Amen to that. 95/96 grille with a grill mesh (painted black for me) is just sick.
