Talking More cool parts from SNooK !

SNooK has done it again! In his tireless effort to further the advancement of TL modification, Tim has convinced another major manufacturer to make parts for our beloved TL. He's been working with GRILLCRAFT on designing and manufacturing 4-piece grill sets for the TL, CL, & TL-S. The set will include upper (main) grill, lower grill and grills for the fake brake duct/fog holes. He also is working on a custom "Mugen-type" grill with a painted border not as thick as the Mugen.

Personally I've been wanting a GrillCraft grill since Tim and I stopped at their booth at SEMA and saw the quality product they produce.
This once again demonstrates that SNooK is the man when it comes to the TL. He makes me glad that I bought a TL and not a boring import sedan with no aftermarket parts available. Thanks for everything you do for us SNooK

** Please note ** THESE KITS ARE NOT AVAILABLE YET! It will take a couple of months before they're ready. As soon as they are ready for delivery SNooK will add them to AutoCarParts.com and post a notice on the board. Price is to be determined. The manufacturing schedule is as follows:

First - Main (upper) Grill for 99-01 TL
Second - Main grill for 2002 TL & CL
Third - Lower 3 pieces for 99-01 TL
Fourth - Lower pieces for '02 TL + CL

Cool! Everybody email Snook and ask when they will be available!

Just kidding... do NOT email Snook.

Sounds great... it was going to cost ALOT to do the mesh otherwise.

These grills will fit the stock openings on the front of the TL, CL & TL-S. These openings are not affected by the Acura OEM or Wings West body kits.

Visit GRILLCRAFT to see what the grills will look like. They are currently made for Accord, Integra, Civic, Eclipse, etc.

Obviously if you have a different bumper than stock the lower grill pieces will not fit.

According to the GrillCraft site the Accord grill kit is Retail Price of $146.91 for the single piece. I would guess that the single piece would be around the same and for all four pieces be around $250-$300. Obviously just a guess.
