Billet Grille question
Hey all,
Thinking about installing Chrome Billet Grille on the ss. I see 3 different versions of them. 1 - Replaces or bolts on over existing only. 2 - Covers turn signals 3 - Covers headlights as well (all the way left to right) I'm assuming 1 and 2 is no problem, but what about 3rd one? Since it goes over the headlight (hids) - will it destroy light output for night driving? Has anyone done this and is it a problem? Thanks Here is a 3rd one:

I have it and I don't notice any diminished light output while driving at night. You can see everything through the grille quite easily.

No, that picture is #3 - the one I like the most but am concerned about light output.

Very good to hear that. I'm assuming there is no difference between chrome and black from inside of the grill?

Nope, sorry. I haven't seen it on a VR. At least from what I can remember. I'm sure there are some out there, though. IMO the grille looks much better with both the bottom billet grille (to match) and a front splitter (for the "weaker" looking V6 front end).
