I want to get a new grille for my car, the chrome trims arent doing it for me anymore. I was watching a red SE grille on eBay but the price has already jumped up to $142 + S&H, which isnt worth it IMO. So I was wondering if I should get a billet grille, or the E&G one instead.
If it were me, i would eithier keep the one you have, or get the SE grille. IMO the ones on the gray and red camrys just don't look good and they're too "bling, bling". But thats just me. I like your grille, nice and neat, gives you a little bit of chrome, but not too much. If you do the same thing to the bottom part of the grille (in the bumper, about two chrome lines), and install fog lights, it would change the front look.

since you have gunmetal wheels, i'd go with the black se grille. if the ebay one is too high, you can always order them from one of those online toyota stores. the billet ones are reserved for those bling wannabe owners.
I was never a huge fan of the billet grilles, but I see them alot on pick-ups and they look pretty nice on them, but not so much on cars. If the E&G grille had a bit thinner trim then I wouldnt hesitate to buy it.
I found a site that sells SE grilles (factory) for around $112, but they dont have the Barcelona Red
