Mr. Grille and Perfect Fit pics

[redlava]

Just got done installing the 3 piece grills from Mr. Grille and a Perfect Fit hood deflector on the Vibe today. I wanted a little something to liven up the front end of the car. It was kinda getting a little bland after looking at it everyday for almost 2 years.

Side shot of the grills. The lower one confused me for a while, it doesn't fit completely up against the center pillar. Hope I didn't install it wrong. It is on as far as it will go without breaking something.

I thought I heard somebody mention that they wanted a closeup of the grills. It is a little blurry, but there was more space in between the slots than I expected.

Nice job Brad.

[nismo]

Yeah. I wasn't sure how it would look on the Shadow. It looks damn good. Nice install.

[redlava]

Thanks guys. I really like the look a lot. I was a little worried after i bought them that I wouldn't like it, but thankfully I was wrong. And Inder's pics helped put my mind at ease.

Man those grilles look great. I wonder how they would look on salsa/2tone..

[ColonelPanic]

...or any 2-tone! I'm not sure, but I don't think anyone with a 2-tone has tried the new grilles yet.Wondering how they would look with my Neptune as well. The top probably wouldn't be too bad, but the lower grilles, I dunno. Not sure how well the chrome will mesh with the grey on my 2-tone.But the brightwork will blend in well with my cheeseball chrome wheel covers I have installed on my steelies for winter.

Merzbow (Paul) has a 2 tone with the 3 piece on his. I haven't seen in person yet, but I'm curious to see how it looks.

[ColonelPanic]

Ahh, I see! Just checked out yer cardomain page, Merzbow. Pretty spiffy!

this may be one of the only other mods i'd do on the vibe... until i get rid of it. currently putting in new a/m fogs with an independant switch.

Looks really good nice job

[Merzbow]

I haven't hada chance to post the 3-piece on my cardomain but I do have the 4-piece on there.The grills are probably the major attention grabber on my Vibe next to the underbody kit. I love how the bottom grill just fits in there perfect don't you Red?

[redlava]

Yeah. It kinda threw me for a little bit. I thought it would fit further in close to the pillar, but guess not. It looks great either way, and it ain't going nowhere with 4 tiestraps holding it in.

Are these billet grills just zip tied to the oem black grills? I was thinking of getting this grill, looks real good!

[Toasted7]

Looks great! Can't wait to get those for my '05!

[BlueCrush]

Those grilles look awesome!

[redlava]

Yeah they ae just held in by zip ties. Not very sophisticated, but it works.

[redlava]

I get that a lot for some reason. I had my internet handle since '97 so any similarities to the Vibe color naming convention is purely a coincidence. Or was it fate of some kind....(theme to Twilight Zone) DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO

[McVibe]

Yea, I was looking into getting some of those grills, but I don't think it would look too great on a Fusion...

[eilros]

I love the look of the Mr. Grille inserts and want to add them to my Satellite Vibe. However I don't think a 3-piece kit would work. I have a 2004 and it has a divider on the lower grill. Is the divider easily removed?

[redlava]

The three piece grill just fits on overtop of the pillar in the lower grill, no removal or cutting required. And they did make a 4 piece as well if you wanted to go that route.

Has anyone installed these grills on a 2005 Vibe? If so, how are they?
