someone pm me their email address so I can email the pics and maybe they will have better luck. For some reason the pics show up on my computer but nobody else can see them.

Now...the grille is more "bling bling"......
Well, different people have different taste~~
I don't like it, but this "Bling Bling Grille" is not ugly, it looks ok.^__^
(Instead of using the passenger small mirror, tell you gf or wife I have a big mirror at the front...lol)
My only concern is, still the same as the stock grille: rock chip o the grille...

I thought I might like the chrome since I am a chome kindof guy. I think I still prefer my painted beak. I have to agree, the midnight makes the grille stand out even more. Hey man, if you like it, stick your chest out and be proud

Perhaps going against the grain is my kinda thing, but I'm going to give you a 
on the grill man. I don't know why, but the grill turned me off on the Black TL's, but seeing it on yours and George Knighton's Car actually make me more interested in it than ever before. Let me be the first to say congratulations and I hope you enjoy it.

To be honest, on white its looks the exact same to me as the original, I think it looks great on the darker cars, but I think i'll be calling to cancel my order tomorrow unfortunately

It's funny how so many of us are rushing to put the bright chrome beak on the car, when so many people want the beak to go away.
Maybe Acura was right after all.

One of the main reasons i bought WDP, was because the silver beak looked pretty decent...
If i didnt get WDP, i was gonna get Palladium Metallic.... because the silver beak looks good on there too
i think the midnight chrome will look best on CBP & Grigio... maybe MBM too

I feel strongly both ways
You're being way too kind Pete.
"Hideous" doesn't begin to do justice to that monstrosity.
Words like "appalling," "grotesque," "disgusting" and "WTF-were-you-thinking" come to mind.
Why don't you just screw in a giant chrome banana on the hood?
It'd probably look about as good.

I think some of you might like it better if he took pictures from different angles.

^^ And to thing I thought I was the only one who learned Latin in grade school and high school...
But yea, I'd need to see it in person. George, I do think so far it looks best on your color.

I'm thinking it's a little understated.
Maybe a few sequins or a bunch of flashing, multi-colored Christmas lights flashing on and off might spice up this otherwise buttoned down, conservative chrome beak.

Ya, I think it looks the best on:
#1 Paladium Metalic
#2 Polishished Metal Metalic
#3 Borealis Blue Pearl ?????
And that's only combined with the 18" Tech Pakge Wheels.

Not digging it either...
Agree with Blackura... Didn't use to like White for cars but went WDP with my TL because imho it is the color that makes the beak look better...

I totally disagree, I think the Chrome grill actually hides alot of the plenums defects, maybe not on lighter colors but on darker colors like PMM it looks great. My dealer has a 2010 in the showroom with the grill on and I am leaning towards it, just not sure if I want to spend the money on an identical swap but it does make a differance, I have no beefs with the Plenum. I think on darker colors the stock sticks out to much and on lighter colors the optional will.
