Default New Grilles for the 2008 XB - Lighted Billet Grille

Here are a couple images of MrGrille brand billet grilles.







We are looking for a vehicle to install a lighted grille on. We need a picture(s) of a 2008 XB with a lighted grille installed. If you are in the southern California are and you are willing and able to drive to Norco please email me (dave@mrgrille.com).

Here's a picture of some lighted grilles.

I think you need to crop the pictures, it's taking forever to show up.

I'll go for the 2nd one and I like the 'lid' on the bimmer

I resized the images to make it a little friendlier.

1st grille is too closed for me, the bars seem too thick. 2nd one looks better, to me anyway.

The second one is the one on my car.


An honest assesment
The bottom grill went in easy and is very secure
The top grill does not quite line up perfectly with the specified mounting points but it is able to be manipulated into place.
The top grill is about 1/16" too wide. It had to be be "massaged" into place. If you do not, you will scratch the paint upon insertion.

For the price, I give it an A
If it cost much more, I would give it a B-

The fitment of the top grille looks a little odd? Can you take a picture or two of the grille from above with the hood open and email them to me. I would like to see how it's done. If you received a grille that's not made quite right I'll swap it out for you. If somehtings off in the installation I can give you my 2 cents. Let me know.
