what kind of grill billet is this?!
Okay, I saw this on a guy' sig on here, but unfotunately he no longer gets on here so I can't ask him what it is.
But what is on his grill?
I have found only one grill billet for rx8's and they have a LOT more bars, I love this one because there are fewer, I feel it goes better with the car.

So does anyone know anything about this?

I literally just went through 36 pages of ebay. Not just grills but most all accessories.

I know they are out there. Maybe they aren't made for the 8 but can be modded?

Idk, but still holding out.

Well, if I remember correctly, you can easily build this using those chrome self-sticking molding pieces (wheel well molding, maybe?) that they sell at your favorite auto parts store.

And no, I don't think it looks good at all.

I first saw it here, home made. I too think I've seen it recently on eBay. But maybe the eBay one has more horizontal pieces:
