    Just as the title says. I've confirmed that street scene grille does not make a full set for the GXP. The only one I've found is the "Figure" grill on ebay.

    Anyone else know of any other grill sets for the GXP?

    I don't think so. I googled some but only came across the ones for the regular, no GXP options.

    Have you considered using your stock ones as templates and custom making your own? Find the material, get a rubber mallet and a work bench and measure out the dimensions and mold them the way you want.

    Not to dis the figure_engineering company or anything but you could find similar wire mesh like this and mold the corners in and clip them in place or screw them in place and save money vs $90 + shipping and you get the mesh design you want. It just looks cheaply made to me.

    I'm definitely leaning towards ordering the mesh from customcargrills.com and making my own. Now I just have to decide which one!

    Just keep the stock grills. You're better off.

    Mesh grills look tacky on any car IMO, those black ones dont look too bad but I'd stay stock

    like the fact that the bottom one covers the lights
    always liked lights behind grills for some reasons

    Currently trying to get out my OEM grill... having no luck.

    Following these instructions.

    http://www.figurellc.com/eBay/model/Pontiac_Grand_Prix_(04)/GXPManual.pdf#view=Fit


    D
    oes the radiator cover actually come out? I just don't seem to have enough room to get behind the grill and pop the old one out...

    Any hints/tips?!


    ************ EDIT*************

    Nevermind, got 'em. Just had to grow a pair on pop them out.

    Finally got the upper grilles done.




    Debating what to do, if anything, to lower grille. Maybe just chrome trim like the uppers used to be?
