I have that it was called Figure Grill...

U will have to Drill holes into your Stock Bumoer and fasten w/ Blk Zip-Ties...

I personally like it...I have had for about 2yrs now....

FIG was the first one to make a grille like that. JD copied it almost exactly... so they're the same thing.

Yes, you do have to drill - but it's not as bad as it sounds. You can't see the holes and they're covered up if you put the OEM grille back on.

vrd, i just dislike the ones posted because they stick out.. if anything the vrd ones are nice (look like stock with no chrome edge and no scion emblem). or the rs3 grill.

can these grills still be installed without having to bolt them onto the oem grill? I dont have my oem grill ,I have the figure grill and might want to change it with vrd or one of these but it says you need to bolt them onto the oem grill.
