Haven't seen one since I got mine. I think I might start taking off the old tint today. I hate removing tint.

I am a little concerned about the ebay grilles because they are so cheap. The JDM grilles run around $150 and up. What is the difference? I am wamting to make my HX look like an SI so I'm hoping I can find an SI grille.

Sorry for hijacking part of this thread.....

roadliner the ebay grills are nice and cheap. this one cost my bro 38$ bucks and it was metal i believe cant really remember. but i think the quality was good because his color didnt fade a bit for all the time he had it. sorry for thread stealing plethoric.
