As some of you know, you have to drill out the front license plate holder and that leaves four holes that have to be filled with retaining clips. The clips look much better than the license plate holder, but still aren't the greatest. I found the OEM grille for only $63.58 on gmpartsdirect.com!!! So for that small price you can have a perfect looking grille again. I'm excited and can't wait to purchase it. For as much as a car costs, I want it to look perfect, so $63 is money well spent in my opinion. Here is the link. Select your year and model, then click on "body hardware", "front bumper and grille", and click on the bottom of the two parts diagrams. I'm pretty sure that this lower grille looks the same on all models. Of course you have to pay shipping and tax, so it will be a little more expensive, but isn't your baby worth it?

I recently bought weather tech floor mats and paid for nice 3m window tinting, plus I'm getting the front lower grille replacement. Maybe I should get the mud guards and wait on the lower grille, since the guards will protect my paint and the lower grille can be replaced later without any potential harm to the paint. My aveo's paint was getting ruined on the lower fender and quarter panel.
