I got the Thundercloud Grill from Sewell, and I love the look. Also, it matches the grill on my SC430, so now I have a matched set.
I still have my original, which is not in perfect condition, as my RX is an '04 that I purchased in '07, but I really don't see much use for it, and I suspect I would take less for that than Sewell would charge you for a replacement. My recollection is that the standard and the Thundercloud grille are pretty much the same price, but things have surely changed since '07, and especially since '10 when the new body came out.

Very nice wheels. I think 20's look perfect on the RX. Looks great!

We got bored of the 20" so we went with some 50". Had to do some minor trimming of the front and rear fenders, we lost the use of the back seats and we had to swap out the engine for a smaller civic engine, pretty pleased with the final project though.

Thanks for the offer on the grill Tfishcer, but the thundercloud grill is the way to go.

Now that is a distinctive look for an otherwise very common car.
Well done, Mr. Stunt.

From the looks of the pavement, it looks to be pretty heavy, too.

good call on that lol

The parking lines are off because they were just being painted on and the guy didnt want his line painter to come close to the fiddys. He's gotta respect the Rex!!!

I'm the first guy in the world with the Brembo massive brake kit 24" rotors all around, gangstas don't play!

I know this is an old thread, but those wheels look good.....this is one of my considerations, it is similar to OEM in black.
