Something New
I've never liked what looks like two gaping holes on the stock '96-'99 SSEi grilles so I decided to highlight mine a little more with some paint. Here'* the result:
How many '96-'99 SSEi guys have done this? I can think of several SE'*, but I'm blanking for the Ei'* :?
On another note, I really haven't seen my car out in the sun that much so I'm still amazed how it highlights the blue metallic

You did what?
painted the grilles?
it looks great, nice and subtle (if that is not what you did, then it applies to whatever you did )

Here’* the best before pic I can find. Travis’ car is next to me too. You can see sort of what I was talking about regarding the apparent emptiness in the grille area. Even if the sun were on the front of the car, the grille seems set too far back to notice.

Thanks for the compliments. Sorry Jim, no closeups as of right now. Paint is actually the silver Duplicolor wheel paint. I got it to redo my original wheel centercaps and decided to try it on the grille.
