        Where can I buy black kidney grills, front grill?

        I want to buy the blacked out kidney grills for the side and front grille. Where can I buy it, or should I just have my bodyshop paint them??

        Paint on them may accumulate rock chips (front) after a while. If you want matte blk, I got mine @ turner motorsports. Fits really well, although if you decide to add soemthing like RPI scoops or something, do it all at once. Continually putting them in and pulling them out may cause stress marks on the plastic tabs, not to mention it is a PITA to swap.

        We carry these just to let you know, in both Matte Black and Carbon Fiber. Painting your Grilles is not a good idea, as mentioned above they chip easily.

        You have PM good sir.
