..to "prototype" a new lower grille that covers the entire lower air dam; in exchange he gave me a new set, along with the lower grille below, for free :Before...And after...I also took the Vibe for a wash/wax, so new pics (albeit kinda crappy!) were in order While I liked the definition provided by the old lower grilles i.e. the bumper split, I like the new one-peice much more. What do you guys think?PS I forgot to mention that Dave @ Mr. Grille is a very cool guy, very laid back and accomodating!
OK stupid question here.Did you cut out the plastic pillar between the lower grills or does the grill fit over the plastic pillar.(begine muttering "idiot" under your breath...now)

I emailed Dave a link to this post; hopefully he'll check in soon Thanks guys

If so, that's awesome

If not, I'd love to know how it was removed (see attachment)...or do you mean it's just covering it? If that's the case, it fits REAL good.

Dave actually installed it, so I'll get under the car and check his other mounting spots soon. It does fit very snug though
that would be cool if I could buy this piece seperate from the top two inserts....the bottom ones I have dont fit snuggly, there is a little space on each side where you can see the original grill if you look close enough...i might wanna buy the new one you have!
