Default Ebay: "944/924 Tail upgrade Performance look Grille kit"

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33645

what do you guys think? I'm not considering this for my car, but I've never seen it before and it caught my eye. I think it could work on the right color car if one was looking to get rid of the light bar...

Looks like crap to me. I am a believer of to each his own, but to me a grille goes where your engine is, or somethign that needs a vent. Our car's don't need a hatch vent.

They must've been thinking of the other porsches.

I think that looks kind of hot but then you run into the problem of where to put the license plate so it doesn't look like an eyesore eg the one in that picture.

True - that license plate placement looks like doo-doo. I guess it's up to the individual. Personally, I wouldn't get it, but there are people out there who think it looks alright.

Too drastic of a change... That piece seems more out of place the more I look at it.

Bad license plate placement - 10 yard penalty!

Not working for me...if it had to go on a car, I think black would be best...but I'd sooner spend on other mods...
