I have the Stingray Metallic 2010 XB and difficult to decide which grill to go with. Which would best compliment my car?

The Billet (grillcraft)

GrillCraft® - Scion xB 2008-2010 BG Series Polished Billet Grille

or

The Mesh (grillcraft)

GrillCraft® - Scion xB 2008-2010 MX Series Black Fine Mesh Grille

I think it depends on what other accents are going on your car, if your going to black it out then go with the mesh. If your going to add shiny stuff like polished aluminum and chrome go with the billet. Your car is an odd color though, as it sits I think the billet would better from this angle.

I guess the accent that was throwing me off on my car would be the tinted windows and the black trim around my windows etc...

I have a 2011 Stingray Metallic. I agree with isk1tz, I think it depends on what look you are trying to go for. Personally, I think shiny stuff belongs on the wheels. My choice would be a black grill.

In the end, go for what -YOU- like.

I have a Stingray as well, and I've had both a shiny grill (like billet but with HUGE "chrome") and now I have a black mesh (ebay cheapo). I can post pics of both when i get home if it helps ya out. That way you can see what the chrome looks like on our color. Personally, I dig the black. Makes it look a little more sporty.

I've got the billet on my super white and love it, just not a fan of the mesh look.

I would shoot for the black mesh. Totally your call. Gives the front end a big opening and some like it and some don't.

Which you prefer?

do you prefer the black mesh?

Looking at thoise pictures, I revise my opinion, I don't like how the polished/chrome grill looks against that color as much as the black. And that's saying a lot as I don't like black accents.
