Default GrilleCraft Mesh Grille for our xB

I was wondering if any of you xB owners know or have the GrilleCraft mesh grille. If so, how's that quality of that thing? Is it the same quality as JDM Mesh Grille that Cabe Scion sells in Long Beach because the price of the grillecraft is roughly $100 while the one sold at Cabe is around $300.

Probably cheaper cuz it doesn't say "JDM"

It looks interesting, I wish they had better pics. It amazes me that some of these company's take worse pictures of their merchandise than we do when we are showing off their products...

If you get it, post a pic with it on...

I think the grill looks great. A couple things you might want to keep in mind is that having large open mesh right in front of the engine will let in lots of dirt and water. Especially hazardous if you have an intake tucked around there someplace. If you check the stock grill it has no openings. Also, you might get a clear view of the engine through the front grill. Not sure if you want this or not. All said, I think mesh looks really cool.

That is why you keep the "bug/dirt" shield attached behind the grill. If you remove it, then you deserve a dirty engine compartment. ONLY remove shield for show use.
If that grill does not have a shield, then you better get one.
