what do you guys think about the very bottom grille that I got installed yesterday? I am not sure on it. I can replace it back with the black grille that is originally there. Thought I'd get some more opinions on it. My girlfriend says she can't tell the difference my brother said he loves it. I am 50/50 on it. (****ty iphone pictures but you get the point)

On that color, it really is a tough call! Not a huge difference compared to black or other dark colors!
Just curious, what did it cost for all the pieces?
Have you found anyone other than the dealer who has the machined aluminum console inserts? I priced them from the dealer about $3800, ouch!

heh keep em. i like them on vs the blacks. ;-) good stuff. i got mine in the garage waiting until i find my bentley. it is getting close, just trying to close down the deal. :-)

i need to tint the windows, add the clearbra, get new wheels (has the mulliner wheels like the 1st bentley i bought), flash the chip, add the digital lowering mod, and get the mansory trunk spoiler lol.

Are you asking just about the very thin part at the bottom of the bumper?

Or about the three piece lower grills as well?

Personally, I like the three lower grills, but I am not as sold on the fourth very thin one.

Hey guys thanks for your opinions. The only part I am wondering about is the very bottom 4th piece. my grilles are from bentley and cost quite a bit of money. The actual price is higher then what anyone has posted on here so far but I am in Canada and everything seems to cost more here lol

just so u know my grills are basically the original black ones but then they sanded them and dipped them in some chrome finish thats why they are so cheap, the finish matches the original front grill but only time will tell if the finish lasts ;p
