Default sc400 with AC kit

I plan on getting the AC kit sometime in the future; however, I'm not a big fan of the front grills on the bumper so I did some photo-shopping.

I think the picture of the car with the AC kit is a member (SClean?) on this site. I hope he doesn't mind.

Tell me what you guys think.

I'd keep the upper grille.
The lower one looks good with it removed. Maybe just get rid of the vertical bar.

Yeah.. definitely looks good if thats is what your intent... The grill is for extra support and makes the overall bumper strong. Without it, I think if you accidentally got too close on those parking block, you would crack the lower part in half very easy.

keep it how it is.
