Default Grill modification to look like new?

Are there seriously no talks of a grill insert or modification kit to make our older 2013-2015 GS's look like the full honeycomb grills on the new 2016's? The hourglass lines are there, just need a snap on grill made to fit over the current grill and cover that solid painted bumper that runs through the middle.

I k ow we can have it painted but it still doesn't look all that great. Would love to see a kit that fits over our current honeycomb to look like the newest of our model. It looks so sexy

Wait til one gets totaled from a rear end collision, then go strip the front. I imagine the pieces it bolts to under the skin haven't changed much.

In just random browsing, I've seen one with what appears to be a snap on carbon fiber cover for the middle portion as well as painted.

I'd like to black mine out as well but the lines, when you get very close, aren't well defined enough for a clean break on the left and right side. If anything, I think I'd go with a black vinyl overlay but would like to see more by others first.
