Here's the deal...I have a 2008 300 SRT8 on the way shiping from Canada on the 23rd of OCTOBER. I want to change the grille (of course). I have searched a while to see whats out there, and after all the lookin and searchin I have decided GRIP is the way i wanna go.
There is one huge but...BUT I need to know if it will work on my (soon to be)car. Oh sure, it'll fit but there is one problem....
This is a message i got from another member...

Shoeboy, be careful with your grille decision since your car should have the "adaptive" cruise control. This system utilizes a sensor located behind the grille to tell how close you are to other vehicles when you are using the cruise control. I was told by my dealer that many of the aftermarket grilles would block the sensor and cause the adaptive feature to not be able to function. Just check it out before you make a purchase of a new grille. Perhaps you can move the sensor or something.

What do you know about this? Is the Grip grille gonna work? I sure would hate to find out the hard way.
here's a link that will take you to a post of another member...it tells a little more about the adaptive cruise control.
