Require help identifying this outer grille trim
Does anyone recognize this outer grille trim?
It is definitely not a painted OEM but there is no definitive marking of maker anywhere.
I thought may be be Aimgain but since there is no inner section I can't really tell. I know there are several companies that offer aftermarket grill so hoping one of you guys recognize it. Thank you all in advance.

I wanted to try colour matching the outer grille trim to the vehicle body colour but didn't want to mess up my original one which is why I bought it (it was already painted in pearl white). I had no idea it was something so far from OEM trim.
It's kind of a bit too much on the aggressive side for my liking but may be I can try putting it on to see how it looks.
Here's a couple of pics I took with the grille simply placed in front of the stock grille.

Generally speaking, the grille trim is about on par with headlight "eyelids" in that you *should* have a more custom/aggressive appearance for them to look "right" with the car. Personally, I feel it would look better molded on, but to each their own.
That being said, you've made a pretty awesome find since that grille trim piece is EXTREMELY rare. As for the stock piece, I suggest "wrapping" it with some pearl white vinyl.

Now that I know more about this grille I may just set it aside for now and go look for an used cheap oem trim again to play around with.
