Very interested to see the grill on. Like the headlights but not the amber.

Why leave the amber? Besides that, it looks sweet!

I personally like the amber. Makes the headlights look more "professionally done" cuz it still leaves a bit of stock look.

Can't wait to see installed pics!

Hard to tell by the picture but it looks like you have gold GT30's which should help make the amber not look out of place. I tedered with color coordiantion of the stillen grille myself but decided to hide the bar as much as possible with black, still like it better then stock either way.

if you smoke it the white will not look too good. my lens is smoked also but after a few session of intense polishing, it cleared up a bit.

Not installed yet, waiting for black chrome emblems. My thought is to keep the emblem but hide it with black chrome..kind of semi-emblemless which I haven't seen done yet. Black Chrome will also match my intakes and it fits the phantom's formula silver well.

Then I just need to get Igor to paint the lights black/red. Debating IM2.0, if just one LED goes out it's ruined and I'm not crazy about pulling them out again.

Ohhhh man that is going to look sickkkkk.....

I also like the amber and think it gives the headlights more of a "this could be OEM" look..


Excited for the final result...

I wonder what that grill in PG on a PG would look....hmm
