i remember seeing the same grill a few months ago. Was told it had horrible fitment and was not worth it.

Maybe you can try buying some carbon fiber fabric and resin and custom fabricate yourself a smiley.

shits hard to wrap! But not impossible, holds up to weather great, as well as car washes and everything else. Try spraying it with gloss after you finish too, itll add more of a shine so it can match your blade a little better!

don't do it kait, if you are referring to the ebay link, someone tired it and reported that fitment was horrible!

but if you are talking about cf wrapping, then wrap away
