well i think it would look nice with a jp kit and the jp hood ornament....the only problem i have about the grill is that many people will look at the car having an "identity crisis" ...but overall it looks decent....I like the euro look

Maybe if the grill wasn't chrome it would look decent.

I am definitely feeling the grill on the 2nd picture...a lot better than the first pic...

I wonder if it's the professionalism of the picture, the angle the photo was taken, the type of camera used or the neutral grey background that could make that 2nd grill looks a lot nicer than the first one.... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
