I personally wouldn't buy it unless there are facts to back this up. After all, you're messing with your car's electronics and it can void your warranty.

If it really does what it advertises, then it wouldn't be that cheap, it would be like 10x more than that.

This is a nickel resistor in about $.03 worth of plastic. No merit here.

Sorry to dissapoint, I dont feel like being ahead of the curve..... I was just searching for things for the car on ebay and this came up. I was actually more impressed by the ACURA TL HEAVY BLACK MESH GRILLE GRILL E&G I saw, but I am not ready to spend $579 for it.

you get more performance from taking the spare tire out than installing this chip.

If you want a E&G grille you honestly bought the wrong car. You should be in a Cadillac

I also was looking at replacing the current chrome with the midnight chrome, but after looking at the installation instructions, I dont think its worth it.

I do very much like the CTS and it was on my short list of cars to purchase. I am 6'3" and my list of requirements incluted 6MT, Leather, sunroof and decent stereo. The CPO TL I bought popped up and away went my '05 TL 6mt and hello '10 SHAWD 6mt TL.....

As far as the E&B Grill is concerned, I like the look as it is not as "loud" as the chrome from Acura, but after revewing it some more, the car already has a 1/2 grill below the existing chrome.
