Looks good, but instead of the silver color mesh grills, I would go for the OEM look of the MS grills and get them in black...or just paint those black. They will make the car look alot cleaner.

the rims are temporary. 3 days ago i went over a man hole cover that wasnt on properly and popped both tires on my passenger side and bent the rear rim. so i had to resort to these.

Just paint the grill black. No need to go through the trouble of replacing it.
