Got the PROPER horn grills from SM over the weekend, so pulled off the old ones, and only then can you see how bad these locally manufactured items are.. gawd.
Anyway, new ones are on, and car's lookin' hawt. I must be honest and say it is a totally different looking car when you do the detail work. Now if I can only shake this head-cold.

The detail with the OEM ones is like night and day. I got two blanks from Roger a while ago and even they look way better than the local ones.
good stuff.
