Titanium Kidney Grille In Canada

Has anybody in Canada (GTA) swapped the grilles on their 3.0si? If so where did you find the best place to get the grilles from?

Thanks

it looks like something that can be simply removed and spray painted with titanium or silver quality paint... anyone tried that??

How about chrome plating?

Have anyone tried having the grill chrome plated?

It will look very cool, I don't know the cost though....

$100 bucks to chrome plate at my local shop that has already chromed numerous parts for my motorcycle... they chrome plate plastic and metal..

and it looks great!!

there seems to be many other options other than spending $300-400 bucks on a painted set from the steal ummean dealers!
