The only way it would be better is if the extra plane was not at the base of the grill, but in the center of the grill. However, the image as it is now is excellent.

    Dude


    the grille slots don't line up




    that's all.

          I don't want to sound like a prick but...



          This is the dumbest fucking idea I have ever heard of. It's going to be time consuming, labor intensive, and it's gonna look fucking stupid.

              I was trying to delete the kidney as you posted the second one, so I quickly edited your deletion in and inset the lights.

                It may need a badboy eyebrow to brake up all the straight lines?

                  Add the kidneys, and we MAY have a winner

                    The red card on this post has deleted headlight. Its just that its not shown very clear because the hood is open. I know the guy, I can give you his contact information.

                      Made the one with the kidneys first, didn't like it as much so I didn't post it.

                        I think that would look sick as hell with black kidneys. I want!

                          Hah, not sure how to do decent looking black kidneys, I'll pass it off to someone else to finish.

                            OK, so now put the kidneys BEHIND the grille!

                            Closing SOON!

                                Damn, that one with the lights and no kidneys is exactly what I plan on doing! I think it looks Sick as hell. It'll all come together with an iS lip & splitter, and the carbon fiber roundel in the middle of the grill, with the hood emblem shaved and smoothed. Totally awsome...
                                Thanks for all the great pics!
