Default Who has FANTASY CREATIONS GRILLE

I know they are pretty expensive but I got one on Ebay for a total of 85 dollars.

If you have one I would appreciate feedback.

I have the stainless brushed steel. It just arrived.

I remember reading this back then and thinking nice grille but too expensive for me.

This is the one I got on ebay and there was a chrome fatty S and the spider web.
All good deals. I noticed the people that I beat out got more agresive in bidding for the remaining 2 left.

2tone?

Did you have any issues with the weather or washing the car with the open grille?

The fit looks good with the hood.

That grille is FUGLY! Maybe if it was painted it would be a little better. Borat voice "Pause... NOT!"

I am not interested in buying a spider grille. Plus. isnt that a female spider?

I just got the above one. Brush stainless fatty 'S" On ebay for 80 bucks total.
The fugly one.

A good deal, I think. The chrome version of this grille is a bit much for me but it seemed to get a lot of bids. Way under 300 bucks. though.


I really dig the grille. Might help the Blitz Induction Cover.

I installed it today and it fits real nice. The little tabs are a pain but if you take your time its easy.
Also, you don't want to scratch anything.

I am glad you like it, but it doesn't deep fry my twinkie, juice my orange, or salt my food.

I am looking for good quality deals.
I have always liked it but it was out of hand $$$$$.
I feel as I search e-bay that a lot of top quality stuff for the xB is going at decent prices if you shop well and patience helps.
I see a lot more bargains now for brand name stuff.

Would be a lot cooler if it was a single solid sheet of steel (ala the OD grill) , but as was said, WAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY over priced.

But for me then I wouldn't be getting any air into the engine if it was just a DAMD type grille.

But if I saw that type on ebay, I would of bid on it for sure. For 80 bucks. OK!

But not the spider.

You get air through the bottom two grills.

The stock grill is solid as well. Besides, an open top grill just makes your bay real dirty real fast.

Hopefully, people that like the grille and have it will come around.

I guess I should of said 'as much air' as opposed to 'any air'.

Just a quick word here. The Fantasy Creations guys are really good people. They make a product that is very DIFFERENT from anything else out there. Like it or not.

Yes, they're pricey. but they are also quality materials and workmanship.

You always get what you pay for!
