I saw a black xB the other day with all 3 billet grills. I've wanted to install them but not sure how hard they are to install. Is this something that I can do by myself pretty easily or do I need to have someone install it on there for me?

It isn't the same for every grill out there. But here are the instructions for the nicest option out there. (At least in my opinion.)

Some just pop in to the factory locations using factory connections, while some eBay grilles are simply a piece of sheetmetal which is ziptied to the existing grille, which looks awful in person. Read carefully and know what you are buying.

The ones I sell install in about 5 - 10 minutes. The top mounts in the factory location on the bottom and at two bolts in the upper tie bar at the top (you will need a 10mm socket).

Both bottom grilles are overlays and attach with nylock wingnuts through the honeycomb.

I sell them for $250 plus shipping (shipping is usually less than $10 for most places) and 7% tax.

They look great on black and Brooks down in KC has taken home several trophies while wearing them:







If they weren't the best quality, I wouldn't run them on mine.

The B-Cool grills are probably some of the most expensive, yet best looking grills on the market. Retail price for all three pieces is well over $300. There has been talk on these forums in the past of people who had access to better pricing on the grills.

I found these Stillen T-Rex Grills on http://www.sportcompactonly.com/prod...2532&c=138&l=2 for $161 but I wanted to know if these will fit a 2006 Scion. (There website doesn't have these listed for the 2006 ones)

Wow thanks for the advice. I'm going to attempt to install some here in a few weeks. I hope it all goes smooth
