Default Which grill looks better on this GS300?

Debating which grill I should put on my car? Not looking to spend much.

Currently I have an aftermarket chrome grill with the logo. Should I stick with that, go back to the L Tuned or go with the aftermarket JDM style? Here are some pics of each.

My car is an 01 gs300 L Tuned millenium silver. The JDM grill pic is not from my car but you get the drift.

Can't figure out how to attach the 3rd pic from my phone.

Use this link. This is my current grill.

in my opinion I wouldn't go with either, the L tune one is a bit plain, just looks like a weird mouth there's no detail to it at all. And the Jdm one looks cheap, its just mesh.

Yes, both look....boring...but if I were to choose one, I'd pick #2.

What options are out there? Do you think my current sport design style beats the l-tune and JDM style?

Is there any actual interest in the L-tuned package parts? My GS430 came with what seems to be all the L-tuned parts but they don't really fit my taste and I have no idea if there is any market for any of the L-tuned parts considering all the aftermarket parts available for these cars lol.

Its all just opinions. One guy will like number 2 the other will like 3 and maybe someone will like the first one. Its what YOU want and like, not US. Take some time to decide what you like and choose.

Never like those 2 grills. Stock grill much better, (black chrome stock grill is even better)

I am not a fan of either of those, they look too 'aftermarket' for my taste.
I'd rather have a stock grill than either of those choices.
I am a fan of the Kazz, then the RMM (only on certain colors though).
