I got mine for about 130 for the 4 peice set powdercoated, but that was during the group buy.

It looks like these guys make the same design, but cheaper. Same thickness aluminum and they are molded like the figure grills. I have no idea how they are to deal with though.

There is no telling since they sell inlays for the scion lettering... which you can do with a simple paint brush

Honestly I was disappointed in the quality of the product...the mesh isnt as sturdy and thick as I thought it be..The Powdercoating is well done!!!...(only good thing)

Then u Must drill your BUmper & use Zip-Ties to attach it...Blahhh

All-in-All it cleans up the front end looks NICE!!!....

^^That's why I can't see spending that much on a grill that is pretty much gutter guard. Spend the extra money and get VRD grills, you will be thankful you did in the end.

The only part of the bumper that needs to be drilled are on the factory tabs. You will never see a 1/8" hole, esp. with a black zip tie through it.
