Mesh grille is not my taste on an ES, especially on its styling, but here is one found from cardomain.com

Auto couture = Sleek and Sexy. Understated but a Gem.

Ditto. Mesh grill was *so* hot in 1995 when it was a new thing in most places, but it's so old & honestly not that good looking. It got overplayed 2 much.

The only way I could live with it would be chroming it. Too many kids go to wall-mart & use tin wires that look nasty.

That's just an IMHO.

well, im actually thinkin of the TRD Aero look ya know. black lipped and black mesh - matching my paint. and since the 95 ES's grill is pretty slim, i think it'll look good.

Gato, the kit you posted in these pics looks so similar to the one on the 1st page. It certainly has the A/C logo on the front and rear plates. It probably is the same kit, just shot at a different angle, lighting, etc. I actually like this view better
