We need Mr. Grille...

I just installed one of these on our 2007 Odyssey:



http://www.wee1.com/

The design was precise, good materials, and the look is hot...
After reviewing the hommade PITA grille threads here, what do we have to do to get these guys to make a set for our 3rd Gen TL's?

They have an application for almost all Honda vehicles... Where our TL?

Let's blow em up with phone calls an emails.

Any interest?

Looks like a clean install. I'd be interested in a mesh grill for the lower grills on the TL if they have anything available.

I think it looks great...

I don't get you guys sometimes. Spraypainted $3 homedepot guttergaurd and a handfull of dremel and JB Weld looks "Hott"...

But a proffessionally manufactured product like this looks "ricey":


Civic


Accord:


To each his own I guess...

imo billet grilles belong on big trucks.....full size pickups and SUV's. mesh looks better on cars.

I agree, there's way too much going on with those grilles for the TL. If anything, a sigle piece of chrome should be used to match the headlight accent that runs across the blinker. Anything more is too much

I still think these would look great on the lower grillsm in silver. I don't like the white black thing on WDP.

Got it... you don't like it... Great.

Anyone else out there have any constructive criticism other than the poo poo crowd?

I agree with you there. Eventually, there will be no black on the exterior of my TL, or at least very little.

Hilarious. That, and the picture of the chick with the f-ed up grill were pretty funny.

I think that chrome grill look OK with the black Civic, but not so much on the reddish Accord (that's not a photoshop skills knock; I just don't think it would look good on that car, and in that color).

You know how the gang up in here works: everyone has different tastes. Some are more opinionated, outspoken, and flat-out less courteous than others.
