...yep, I know all to well about the whole budget thing

...tho I doubt one of those grills will come available for less than that.

...that 50 bucks I spent for the grill was well worth it...very good quality.

I "black out" taped my stock grill.....the chrome slatted original grill. It looks good. You can also "Plasti Dip" (paint) the original grill for a black look. There are alot of posts in NAM about that technique. Its not uncommon.

Buget?? WHAT Budget??!! Just do what I do, space out your Major $$ Mods every 6mo., then you'll know you need to "save" for them!! Ps. Next up is either Driving Lights, Chrome Mirror Caps, or a Roof Rack...I'm leaning towards the Driving Lights, will have to see how much MINI Mulla I'll have come October!!
