Smile Mina Mesh Grill

Hello everyone.

Does anyone know if the Mina Mesh grill upper and lower piece is a direct replacement or a layover kit.


Thanks for the help i emailed them but they never responded also if anyone has the grill installed please post photos.

Thanks

Here, I'll lend you a hand:

http://minaginc.com/model-pages/Lexu...S-wire-reg.htm

"Lexus IS Mina Gallery exclusive signature main mesh grille.

Mina Gallery is proud to feature its direct replacement mesh grilles assemblies from its prestige signature collection. Every aspects of this grille echoes class and exudes refined elegance. Mina Gallery’s exclusive mesh pattern reflects its devotion to classic European styling. Constructed for ultra high grade heavy T316L European woven stainless steel mesh, this product features an amazing combination of durability and jewelry like brilliance. Unique to this signature line is this grille’s custom heavy gauge wire frame, which flawlessly unites the woven mesh in perfect accord. "

Done. 2 minutes of googling. Sheesh.

Not bad, get the gloss black.

What do you mean by lay over? over the stock grill? not really.

ewwwwwww,that's hideous looking. Too tacky, it'll be like going to autozone and adding those oval fender vents.

If it's a overlay grill don't do it. If you do it, go with the black one.
