No problem.

My grille is scheduled to be delivered tomorrow but I am working on the front end.

Working on the front emblem replacement, replaced high, low and fog light bulbs and painting the fog light surrounds, a matching silver.

You don't have to take off the bumper cover to change the fog light bulbs. Just the covers below the engine.

Trying to decide what to do with the lower opening (Paint, chrome) also.

Changed my oil and filter while I was under there too.

I honestly don't like the new front grill of the Camry. I also fear that they might start doing that to the rest of the Toyota line up. I certainly hope not. If so, I won't be buying any Toyotas for a while.

Toyota has been using the grille designs on the 07 camry for at least four years now.

Now this is the Hybrid grille people are ordering right? I have an LE and I like the hybrid grille much better.

I think it comes down to the SE and Hybrid grill. SE has a sportier look and the Hybrid has a classier look. Personally I like the SE grill but ONLY on the SE. I was the first on here with the Hybrid grill but I was going for sporty and classy with my CE.

My friend's dad said it looks like a Bull Nose. which was a reason he decided to go with an Accord instead. That's all i'm saying.

I like the SE grill. That huge Toyota emblem has to go.

I agree.
The Hybrid grill is classier and looks great.
The stock color keyed grille is just plain ugly.
The swap was a great idea and I'm glad you posted a pic of your Camry with the grille.
Toyota owes you some kind of commission for all the Hybrid grille purchases made by many here.
