IND I assume?

Thanks! And yes, IND. GREAT products and customer service is second to none!

The grilles were a bit of a gamble with so many colors in a small area, but I figured worst case if I didn't like them, I could have IND repaint for $45 (their quote to repaint).
But.., I'm really happy with how they look on the car. The blue doesn't stand out too much and is just a splash of color and small detail you see when up close. I didn't want all black because they seem to disappear to me. And I personally really like the side grilles... So I wanted them to stand out.

The blue looks out of place, and IND charges way too much for a these things. A good local body shop can duplicate this for 1/5 of the price

I didn't mind the price.

And I can see how some may not like the blue... But like I said, I'm happy with them and like to be a little different.

But thanks for the completely negative post.

Phil - this looks pretty sick. I am not a fan of chrome and will be making similar minor cosmetic mods on mine. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks bud! FYI... IND quoted me $45 re-paint... So if you decide you don't like...doesn't cost much to change.

Be sure to post pics!
