Default New cowl grill opinions wanted.

I stumbled across this while looking for a new cowl grill, well I have already ordered it cause for some reason I like it.

What do yall think about it.

I like it, the only thing I'd do is paint the silver grill black so it didn't stand out so much (kinda looks like "grilltech" for imports), but it looks smoother than the stock cowl. I've seen one like it from a diffferent company, but can't remember where. Make sure you post some pictures of it after it's installed.

I like the grill. If I didn't have a cowl induction hood that went to the windshield I would get it!

I'm an idiot, I don't know why I'd ask about that hood knowing it was a picture of someone elses car with teh new cowl panel.

Hmmm, it's different and I think it's a good idea, but I'm not really too much in love with it. I probably wouldn't put it on my GT. I somehow think the original cowl vent does a great job if it's in good shape.

BTW, what the heck is that vent for anyway????
