Default Zip Tie Billet Grilles

I know they are a lot cheaper (quality and money wise) but I am thinking about getting a 3 piece zip tie billet grille for my xb.
Does anyone have any pics of it and how it looks close up? Does it actually go on OVER your grille now? Can you see the old one through it?
Does anyone have one they don't want/need anymore

The reason why I am intereseted in the cheap one is b/c I just lost my job and can't afford the bolt on one.
Let me know and if anyone from SEGL can help me install it, please let me know...

My philosophy has always been to wait until you can afford exactly what you really want instead of getting a cheap substitute.

They don't look that bad from the zip tie stand point. Most I've seen, you couldn't really see the zipties or the oem grills unless you get really close. The one thing i don't like about most of them, however, is that the don't quite fit the openings just right. I think it is from the bowing that the grills have and the upper corners of the lower grills look a little off... JMO

well so far 83% of posters think the grill is crap i have installed those grilles and i have to agree poorly made
fits crappy and is held down with wire ties i think you would
be better off going to the ace hardware or home depot and
picking up some chicken wire imo the look the same
