If it lights up, a company named Hippo Sleek made it.. if not, then then it could be just a guy who painted his grille

I painted mine black, and made a custom light behind it. Never knew it was a factory item. I had seen one on ebay that looked lame so I thought I would try my own.

thats my car. the grill is painted black from the inside of the grill. i took it apart and just sprayed it black. here is a few more shots.

Gorilla Unit 33 · 02-07-2009, 09:35 AM

got any pictures of it lit up at night?

Automato · 02-07-2009, 09:42 AM

it doesn't light up. at least not mine. its a stock grill with black paint on the inside of the grill. the letters were factory painted silver or something like that so i just left that and sprayed the rest black.

Looks sick! I thought i was gonna have to tape off the letters to get that effect, but it sounds like a pretty easy job.. cant wait to try it when i get off work
