Question Opinions on Grip vs TommyZ grill and Body Kits

Just wanted to gauge opinions on the grip grill and tommyz deep dish grill. Are these a couple of the top quality grills? Im going for a black out look, so either one will be painted completely brilliant black. Just wanted to see if I should include any other grills in my search?

Also, I have pretty much decided on the SRT8 front bumper/fascia, just wondering if there are any other financially reasonable front fascias out there that will have an aggressive look but not cost me an arm and a leg?

everyone on here loves the Grip Grille. i havent heard any dissatisfied reports of the grip grille. i personally LOVE the TZ one and am in on the group buy for the wingless one over on the other forum. (i think youve already seen that). quality wise, i have never heard anything bad about TZ. people report very long wait times to get their grilles made, but once they have them, are thrilled.

since they are 2 totally different things its tough to compare, because they give your car 2 completely different looks.

Does the group buy on the Tommy Z grill include the entire thing painted to match? zEven the mesh?

Aaron, how do I contact Bill?

not including the mesh no. the group buy price is for painting the standard grille shell, and the mesh is the regular electro-polished mesh. he just updated the group buy thread with powdercoating prices for the mesh.

I absolutely agree with shoeboy23 that Grip Grille and Facia are top notch. As shoeboy23 states, Bill at C3 Motors, is awesome to work with and his customer service is over the TOP... I did both the Grille and Facia from him, here is what it looks like on my 08 300c. I think the next step for me is to get rid of the Orange side markers and egg yolks next to the headlights.

Give Bill a call and it will feel like you have been friends with this guy for the last 10 years. Come on Join the Grip Group...
