Mgear you are sooooo right, he should most certainly have a budget or he could end up like me $45K and counting.

Welcome! And a word of warning. The Black Aero grille does not fit exactly to the stock bumper. It is possible to do but some modification needs to be done in the process. This is a great tutorial on the specifics. Good luck, the feeling of accomplishment will be great when you are done!

Areo grille how to
