Looking for a custom grill.. any ideas?

Also does anyone know if I order a grill from Rod Millen will I have to paint it to match? About how much would that be?

How about the Silversport (now also the Coach Edition grill). It looks really nice.

The RMM gill does have to be painted.

There are so many grills out there that are better then Rod Millen but they're gonna cost ya, all of the things I checke out are 300+ without paint. check this one out, it has like the highlander to line thing going.

Those headrests look cool. Can't you just take your headrests off and take them to an embrodery shop and have something like the Lexus "L" put on?

I've always liked that grill.... That ***** is hot... It shouldn't cost that much to paint.. Around $50-$75 to paint... I just got my GS Roof Spoiler and my TRD Grill painted for $150. I think that is a resonable price for the both of then... I had my brother to this spot that Lexus refered me to, and he wanted to charge me $300 I told my brother to get back my stuff and get out of there, F@ck that *****, You don't rip me off... I called this other place and the guy said $150 and I said "deal".....

One more place for you too, call Steve Ganz in Carson Toyota, i'm sure he has the hook ups too, the grill again is like 300 bucks plus, so you might check again to see if prices have gone down.

If I get the SS Grill will I have to paint it at all..... I noticed around the edges of the grill match the car color but I'm not sure if thats the grill or the car.

Does anybody have a SS grill thats not on a silver sport?
How does it look?
