Front Grille Options.
 

Ok, so my lower grille has been busted up by a rock, and had to be removed. This is the grille between the 2 fog, fyi.

Now, I know I can replace it with either an OEM replacement (same one I had), or a metal mesh grille, cut to fit.

What I'm wondering is if there are any aftermarket options that can work? I've never seen any different ones, but then again, I haven't seen anyone else with my upper sedan grille (between the headlights) either.

I'd say stick to the oem one.. a metal mesh would look kinda tacky.. maybe if it was a black metal mesh, but then you might as well have just gotten the OEM one. I think the OEM lower for the P5 bumper is ~30USD .. so it shouldn't be bad for the sedans

I'm with Kansei on this one. The problem with getting a mesh or other would be that it wouldn't match. Especially if you got a chrome grille. Just my opinion.

Ditto. That's one piece Mazda got right.

Hmm, yeh I know what you mean. Too bad I can't get one like the lower grille in Kansei's sig pic (new 6).

That's a sweet looking grille. If I do decide to go mesh, it would be black mesh. None of that ricey silver/chrome mesh. It would be like stock, but metal instead of plastic.
