Do you mean this one?

It's a plastic addition called an SLP Grille. You remove the emblem from the front, paint the grille, and use 3M Emblem Adhesive to put it in place.

The grille comes in an unpainted black plastic. You paint it however you want.

That SS badge is off the side of the car.

Ok guys thanks for all the help do they also offer an insert for the lower grille? Since joining this forum and seeing others cars I have so many plans!

They do, but it doesn't change the appearance, it just gives you something to paint to change the color. Taping off the lower grille and painting it looks better.

It's definitely a great add-on! I've had many compliments on it!
As far as the lower SLP grille, I don't think they make them anymore

I kept my aftermarket grille red like the majority of the car, just wanted it to go away in a sense. Yet still provide a subtle enhanced fascia over the OEM look.
