I have got the upper grilles fitted to my CC and I don't think they make much differance. You have to bend down to see them so, in my opinion, I would save your money....

The main mesh grille is a must though :grin:

Thanks for that Bri, not having the upper grille would keep me thinking should I or should I not but you have made my mind up.

Agree with the lower grille, I'm really happy i got it, makes a huge difference and anyone who sees it thinks the same.

I agree with Bri the upper grill is hard to see when looking at the car as a whole. But the main Bumper grill looks the business.

If you set it forward and one slot lower, you see more of it, but to be perfectly honest you don't really notice unless your bending over, sorry looking.

Saying that,it would be rude not to get one.(Derek)

Yours sincerely
Upper grille fan club. :smile:

Freedrive,

It's obvious you really like the upper grille and recommend it - so how about you buy one for everyone on this board to show your appreciation :grin:

Derek

Hey guys I haven't installed a front grille yet. Now I'm thinking to install one but I wonder if there are any black in colour :smile:

Should be fairly easy to spray up followed by a lacquer finish, but I still reckon it looks best left as original.

i dont know why u would want to paint it black. it's nearly invisible when it's silver so black would be invisible.

p.s. freedrive - still waiting on the one you bought me - post must be slow.

Firstly I think that just spraying it does not guarantee a solid colour in time and I have a friends experience on that. As for the 'invisible' part of a black grille well...I have capture the picture in my mind I think it would seem better cause basically I don't want the car very sporty in the looking. I believe that a cabrio and especially cc is more classy than other monster cars on the road and I don't want to end up driving a monster car. Of course I've seen many pic's of the silver grille and it looks good but my car silver in paint as well. I don't know...If at the end the cost of proper black painted grille is high I might end up installing the silver one :grin:
