Default Aftermarket billet grille

Just wanted to see if anyone knew or had any experience with this product by e-auto grilles? Quality? Fitment? Appearance? I am debating what route to go. Buy this unit as a whole as it's a direct bolt on....or buy a billet insert and install to an OEM grill surround. Any suggestions?

I plan on buying that grille and possibly doing a paint to match on the shell with OEM dark blue metallic. I've bought from them before, and the fitment was fine. I would be wary of just keeping the existing finish on the shell though as my current grille from them has started to peel terribly after the winter we've had here. I might also have the shell Line-x'd at the local shop...it just depends on how the pricing comes out on that versus painting.

Here's the thread with some pictures of the Carriage Works black billet grille I installed in mine. Look towards the end of the thread.

I have a grill like that in white. The imstall was easy, and nothing complicated. My only issue is it's see through practically. You can see right through it, but it's not a huge deal
