Why would you want to put a billet grill on?

honestly, its played out, ugly, and wont match the style of the 3rd gen TL.
but if you must....I'm sure ebay has some items that you can cheapen up your car with.

clean it till it becomes clean!? I'm confused?

what is the real problem you're trying to get at? is your grill becoming faded and shitty?

to answer your questions, no there aren't too many options of grill choices.
You can DIY and make a custom grill, as seen here:
https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...oating+A+grill



The link to the thread I provided, someone updated it and said that this "idea" is on ebay. you might want to check it out.
I'd rather make it then spend money on!

Also, I dont know how bad your grill is, but lots of members apply vinyl to their grill. it changes the look and color without the cost or troubles of paint.

Vynyl or paint is probably the best bet. Search for some threads about each. Lot's of options. Aftermarket grills for the TL are next to nil, unless you go with a RonJon grill.

I just bought a 24k gold grill. I had them on for two days and it felt like braces so I took it off and gave the grill too a homeless guy. I'm very generous.
