The Sport Grill club

[VF-X]

The Thai sport grill IMO is similar to TRD, with outer side made of rubber instead of plastic. If you're puttin the emblem at the middle, it's gonna look like the TRD grill. IMO lazz, it suits your car colour but not with the original badge colour. You'll have to code it to green or anything to ur creativity. Personally, I don't really like what I see in the photo, but if you colour it say to green? I might change my opinion.

And it's maybe because of your angle and you took the photos during the night. You can ignore all our opinions, coz I know it looks a lot better in real.

Changed my VIP1 grill to the Lexus Grill from RS, got the unpainted one and colour coded it. Had mixed feeling about the looks.. hmm.. what do u guys think??

[DJKOR]

It does look good Ingres, however you need something to define it a little. Not sure what though. I reckon utilising some black or chrome may help.

The way I gauge something like this is to look at it slightly cross-eyed*. Then it becomes obvious what stands out and what blends in. The area around the grill (including it) looks a little too blended in.

* Yes I know I'm strange.

Great effort mate,at least your having a go,i think it looks very unique.

similar opinion to Daryl,needs a little something to break it up,this coming from a guy whose grille is all black.

i will try and find a decent pic of my painted ATX grille and post a pic.

Crazy me is thinking about colour coding it to black.. but seems too crazy to change it that soon.. not sure whether chrome will look nice with my current car.. if not the lexus grill which 51der got will be the answer to it.. kinda miss the VIP1 grill but i hope i will grow to love this new grill..

A couple of my painted satin black ATX grille...

[httttt]

Sorry Ingres, I'm not a fan at all.

Your car is hot but that doesn't suit. I'm not sure what could be done to fix it.

Possibly silver mesh behind? It needs some lightening up.

1stKill: Killer look... Envy the colour.. xD

Sorry Ingres, I'm not a fan at all.

Ignore Jeff.. He's just jealous his' still on stock. :P :lol LOL. Jokez Jeff..

Ingres: Bro.. Looks good. Thou total red on grill isn't an optimized look. Maybe the black or the chrome will.. I dunno. I reckon the sport grill looks better.

If u wanna stick to the lexus grill, u'll either have to play around or just stay on ur current ones. I think it still stands out.

I think doing that the other way around leaving the four center lines red doing the outside black atm the front kinda doesn't look finished.

Good on you for doing it as well Ingres not many people would do that.

hey ingres,

looks good... you could define it a bit more with not black but IMO some pearl white.... the red and white will mix well and kinda is the trd's colour.

Hhahaa. .. i can't do white.. my theme is black and red.. so have to keep most of it that way.. reckon red and white also pretty good combi though..

[BlueBird]

I am really amazed with how the sports grill make the car looks ... most of you put this on a sportivo ... how will this look like on an ATX in burgundy colour ? :)

The sports grill ... do you need to colour coded it? or it is originally come in matt black?
