I found the idea of an egg crate intriguing...

Always liked the look of those old Ferrari grills. How about a Priari?

The last thing I want is bigger holes. I think the chances of a rock bouncing up in there now is bad enough.

i assure you that grille is NOT flimsy. Maybe this picture does not do it justice but If you saw it in person you would see the quality of this grille. Unfortunately it can not be color matched, but it can be powdercoated black. A Grille that will not cover the headlights is in the works.

I just test fitted the billet (non-mesh) grille pictured to a Prius w/ foglights and it WILL WORK... but it will still cover the fogs.

The billet grill I have does not cover the fogs.

Is there a weight savings over stock? I'd be interested in lightening the front of the car.
