Today I got my matte black grills from SVC. installed in under 10 minutes and they look great. No pictures, I use the iPhone app. The grills were $60 shipped priority mail.

I did the plasti dip on my grills first, to see if I would like it. PD chipped and didn't look all that great. It was good to just get an idea of how it would look.
