Default Where to find this grille?

Hey guys. I saw this grill in aluminum a few months ago on Ebay.

Anyone know where I can find it for purchase?

Here is the chrome version.

So, no ideas where to buy this one or the aluminum one that ain't Ebay.

BEcause I've never seen either, and there aren't any aluminum ones on Ebay now.

Yep I know exactly where to get it.

That is the 5th gen gril if I am not mistaken and it is made quite simply.

Take an EX grill (the one with the chrome trim ring) remove the trim ring (unscrews from the back) then place mesh painted your choice of color behind the trim ring, replace trim ring, install on car.

Total cost is about 20 bucks in all and about 15 minutes.

If you want to get really stylish with it then sand off the chrome and paint it and the screen the body color

Nah, it's a 6th Gen coupe grill.

And it appears to be a prefabricated thing, not a custom junker.

You sure the same thing isn't possible with a 6th gen grill? I thought they offered them with the chrome trim ring on 6th gens as well:dunno:

nope, it's not a 5th gen...look at the mounting points (we don't have that many on top) and also, if it were a 5th gen (96-97 or v6) then it would have that bar across the middle and have a place to mount the "h"
