Custom Grille

Mario · Post by **Mario** » Tue Sep 26, 2006 10:25 am

Iâ€™ve been thinking of getting a custom grille done on my 2006 Vibe from a metal guy I know. I just have one problemâ€¦ I have no idea of what to get. Do any of you have some suggestions as to what â€œpatternâ€ would look good on the 2006â€™s. What do you guys think of getting the pattern of the new GTIâ€™s grille on the Vibe?Thanks for your suggestions

No offence to those who have it, but that thing is tacky.

If you could somehow swing it, I would try something two tone in fasion. Black and Chrome or something to that effect might look nice, but as far as a pattern...Im not sure what would look good. I too agree with you in that I do not find that billet grille appealing.

I'd much prefer some sort of silver mesh...something patterned similar to the honeycomb to the billett.

ahhh, the billet! this is what i want to get, but can one get it for the 2004 vibe?! i love that look

okay, nevermind to my last question, as i just found the 04 grilles! Man, I have to get those.. But I'm wondering... black or silver for my silver vibe? Black is a good contrast.. but silver might make it look sleek... hmmmm...

Black

Black. I find the silver blends a little too well.

Just as an example, I painted my grills black, it's not the came color, but...I think it looks betta.

shawnothaninja · Post by **shawnothaninja** » Tue Mar 25, 2008 3:58 am

thanks for the advice. yeah, i guess black would be best.. i wouldn't want silver to blend so much that it isn't noticeable! dang, i can't wait.. only $106 too

Man, painting the grill was a definite improvement. There is much more contrast now!

Thanks for the idea

I'm in the process of making a custom grill for mine.I've hollow out the stock honeycomb pattern and have the frames,and want to insert some sort of mesh.But,I'm not good at fabrication,and I am having a hard time figuring out how to go about it.My biggest obstacle is how to fasten it to the plastic frame.Any suggestions?

shawnothaninja · Post by **shawnothaninja** » Wed Mar 26, 2008 1:56 am

hahaa... seriouslyI am planning on getting the 3pc set from Mr. Grille for my car..what i didnt realize is that they are overlays, which makes it alot easier to install because i don't have to remove the honeycomb pieces. And it is going to look extremely awesome judging by some of the pics I have seen on here!

awesome... the only thing i noticed on the ebay was that I can't see how to specify black or silver.. Guess I'll have to look harder.

hey does anyone know is there a company that makes a 5pc billet grille for the 06 vibe that aren't overlays

darcmater · Post by **darcmater** » Thu Apr 17, 2008 8:35 pm

I had ordered my grille from mrgrille back in early 06 for my 05 vibe and unfortunately decided I didn't like them on the car, after it was to late to send them back. They definately look better on the 03/04 face.I like what V did painting the chrome rings on the grille, but I descided on mine when I painted them to leave them chrome, just to add some flash to the front I guess

I wish they weren't. They are such a pain to install that I only put on the bottom 3.

thanks for the info

Wow, I can't believe it's been nearly 4 years since my first set of Mr. Grille grilles: I've got the black ones on now; sorry for the crappy lic plate:Hopefully it gives those with 03/04/05 (?) Vibes an idea of how both look on the same car.
