Gloss Black grill from eBay. Been on the car since May and no issue. Perfect fit and only about $200. Car is a bit different since this but the grill still looks the same and I love it.
...oh and I just used my original emblem for contrast since I wasn't blacking out the whole front

I just got this in the mail today. I had got a refund for it since I ordered it on Jan 15th and the seller on ebay said it was lost in the mail. The fitment is trash, I'll need to sand parts of the back to get it to fit, that and it will need screws as it did not come with any. I had ordered grills from China before and the fitment was perfect, as well as the hardware, so a bit disappointed. Hopefully I can make it work.

After about 2.5 hours of work I got it to fit. All 4 corners needed to be filed/dremeled down in the back quite a lot. Not all the screw holes lined up, so I'm not using all of them. When I filed down the corners enough, I got a couple of the screws in (holes were trash but they did have nuts inside, no hardware provided though). The top was not even remotely close to the screw hole, had to fight it to line it up and hold. The bottom was not lined up remotely either, and only 2 of the 4 tabs that slide in through the front are present on this. They are also the 2 outword tabs, so the middle bottom had a huge gap. I fixed this by drilled screws into the bumper, and into the grill, pulling them down. Now it looks decent, but up close you can see some flaws, a crack, and the 1st and 2nd grill row has a noticeable gap still. But from afar, it looks fantastic. For free I am happy with it, but if I paid what I originally ordered it at, I would have returned it. Ebay purchase.
