I found B-Cools web page:

http://www.b-coolbillets.com/vehicles/toyota.htm

I'm just needing to find a shop that carries the upper grill portion, I think I'm going
to buy one today if I can find a good price online!

Default what type of grilles do you perfer.

fbord, why not check out gary nish's products at http://www.nish-designs.com/ . i've got a BOP myself and am using his carbon fiber products, and catch this, with a candy blue and clearcoat finish. he'll even do pearl effect flames. kinda to match like he's been doing for some of the hot lavas. they have a sweet one piece eyelid that crosses in front of the grill to give it a more "aggressive" effect. i like the lip over the headlight for a nice touch of style. not that i want you to copy my idea but its all cool. call gary and he'll help you figure it out.

you might just paint your griill BOP and put an eyelid over the top. that would look awesome.

Damn, the more I look at that B-Cool grill, the more I see
that it's for sure the one I want!! Does anyone know where
we can buy them online. I've Googled for the past 30
minutes and I only see references to it, but no shops that
are carrying it.

Any help?

My xB was featured on the FAQ forum for a new grille.
It was something different(?) for my xB.
There's plenty more you can choose from, so maybe something will catch your eye.

Here's there site:
www.fantasy-creations.net

And here's the grille installation tutorial from Mikochu:

That eyelid is exactly what I've been looking for. I could just throw a new grill under it and it would look sweet. Thanks!

I don't like chrome or billet, except in very small doses.

What I'd almost be willing to pay for is the one-piece smoked light/grill assembly on one of the early bB show cars.

Default Grilles

I have a 05 BOP xb w/ a Damd painted upper grille w/ a bB hatch emblem & stainless mesh Jag grilles below. Photos show both w/ billet (original grilles) and the new grilles. I haven't decided which one I like best, but since I sold the original billet pieces....... I guess it's the painted.

Default Damd Grille

The Damd grille mounts like the original, 2 radial tab/slots at the bottm, and 3 push pins on top.

I like the OEM grille with bB badge as well as the following grilles. It is cool to be able to change them around depending on what rims you have...
