r32 grille vs. kamei grille vs. stock grille

Anyone have any opinions?? Not only do i think it's obviously personal preference, but price comes into play as well. The Kamei looks great on MKiv's, but then again the R32 is half the price of the Kamei. Let me know what you all think??

R32 grille = stock grille with a R32 badge

Why not try something like painting the stock grille? I painted mine black (silver Jetta) and it looks great! I've also got an all-red TDI grille badge that I made so it looks pretty factory.

Nope

Naaa, the R32 grille is not factory grill have a looksie at it......

This is essentially what my car looks like, except I've installed OEM HID's as well. Unfortunately all my pics are on another laptop which I don't have with me right now, but I think you get a pretty good idea of how it looks. As for the paint, I originally removed the grille, scuffed it up with some sandpaper and painted it with a can of flat-black bumper spray paint. I've had the car repainted since then, so it's been professionally done, but it's pretty easy to do yourself.

That grille is not a factory R32 grille. That grille is a replica of the Oettinger Sport grille.

Here is a picture of the stock R32

Ok

Ok then what you think about the difference between the Oettinger Sport grille Replica and the Kamei???

whatever floats your boat. The Kamei is not that bad.

I prefer to keep the VW badge up front-- so I would go Oettinger Sport or regular (without the duct)

I like the Kamei on the Jetta, doesn't do much for a Golf though...
