Default Stainless/Chrome Grill

I did a search and I don't THINK anybody else has asked this, but has anyone seen/know/heard about a stainless or Chrome overlay or replacement grill. You know, the CJ's had them, the YJ's and the TJ's. I wouldn't mind seeing what they look like on a JK. But I dunno. There are no real front fenders anymore and I just think that would look goofy on the JK's. Anybody else's opinions/comments are welcome...

Default Grill

I have one on my CJ7. I'm not sure I'd stick one the JK...although my first thought is one would look better on a rig with painted fenders. There might be too much going on with blacked out fenders. Someone can photoshop one in there and we'll take a look.

Well...

It'd be fun to have when tailgaiting a lane crawler. Blind 'em quick.


Other than that, isnt my thing. Had a chrome grill on my F150, cheap plastic chrome (from the factory) came off in less than a year. Looked like crapola. I replaced it with a painted one, which is exactly what i would do if my JK had a chrome one on it.

Looks nice, just not for me is all *shrugs* I prefer the monochrome over the chrome.

edit: I do like that bumper though, it is my second choice after the AEV one.

I'm pretty sure this is cheap plastic chrome too. I'd be at least intrigued if I thought it was a Chrome plated steel item.
