Australia Black Front Grille

Hi All,

I am trying to search for a black matte finish front grille to suit a Gen 6 Camry. There seems to be heaps of billet grilles but I can't find a black matte grille.

Somehow, I don't quite like the look of the billet grille.

Thanks all

I have an LE v6 and am mildly curious about changing the grille. I rather like the Hybrid's chrome grille..not entirely sold on the SE mesh. In either case what is involved in removing the stock grille and swapping in one of the above?
Would this void the factory warranty?
Thank you.

Thanks PrincessPeach..just ordered the grill from them. How hard is it to remove the existing grille? I had a quick look and I can see 2 screws and several clips holding the current one in place but I can't work out how I access those screws

lol... there's a lot of tutorials just search

as for how hard it is, i tried to be careful not to damage the grille but it was just way too hard... you really have to use some force and more or else the plastic tabs are going to get damaged a bit but won't break it.
