I love it! The 'anti bling' grill on the 2IS.

Is there a black pearl 'L' available for the front of the 2IS? That would make the front look even better IMO.

well i plan on swapping the grill back to a stock one when the lease is up...the only things i can't take out at the end would be the front lip and the spoiler..everything else im taking out and either giving to someone or trying to sell them lol

and YES thats the gl unit!! i just picked it up last night

I think the painted grill makes that black car look pissed off at traffic and ready to gobble up anything in it's way.


I have been thinking about doing it to my matador red, along with the engine cover. Every since Pocky did his.........threads like these remotivate me..

Very nice.

Now you got me thinking $5-600 for the Blitz (if it ever comes out) or ~$150 to pain the OEM.....
