Sti - GDB grill (replica or not)
 
Hey guys,

I have been looking at this grill and I have heard that its hard to tell from the replica or not. I am sure it isn't a replica, especially when it comes to the price, but just checking.

Here is the link : http://home.att.net/~teaguesauto/exterior1.htm

Just let me know.

Most of the replicas I've seen don't have the emblems on them. Just black mesh. Here's the cheapest one I've seen.

I've been thinking about getting one, but I am pretty broke right now.

I like the look with the emblems...

I will just save up and get the one I mentioned above. I just have seen so many pics of different kinds, I don't want to spend 250.00$ or so and buy a replica.

That's the grill I was planning on getting too. I thought it was only available in blue and silver from Subaru tho...

One thing to note, the replicas are usually like $100 to $150.. but then you have to get them painted... sometimes the replicas end up costing *more*!

Well that one he has is a black color one - he says he assumes its the same midnight black pearl that subaru produces. If it is, then I plan on getting this one instead of a replica. I hate having things painted. I would much prefer buying it and just slapping it on.

Amen... the grill's super easy to install... just a few presses of the screwdriver and it pops right off...
