Default Billet grille over honeycomb

Hey guys, I want to see some pics of billet grille layovers. I have a Lariet with tan honeycomb and just want to see what it looks like with the cover style. Or if you would recommend a entire grille section to me and let me know whats good and easy to install with no cutting

Looks fine, but I'd go with a complete replacement, as the "cover over" existing grill would seem to block some airflow through to the radiator. Seeing as how many complain that their air conditioner does not work well during idle, this cover over the grill may impact that.

Ive been looking at this one here, Is it a replacement where I take out the honeycomb or how does it work. The wording kinda confuses me.
I have the tan honeycomb with the chrome edges, does this replace everything tan then it will have the chrome edge then this nice grille.

IMO I absolutely hate the Billet layovers on the Honey comb, that pic above looks good but when I see them on the street they look crappy and you can always see the Ford Emblem through the billet, it's not too difficult to do a full swap.

If I do a cover up it will be one with the cut out for the emblem.
