Default '04-'07 grills fit on '08 models?

Hey all,

Basic question, I am going to get a new grill, probably a billet, but the suppliers on ebay that I have asked have not responded to my question:

The billet grills that are listed to fit the '04-'07 models, do they fit the '08s?

I just don't want to buy one without knowing for sure.

thx.

The new grills ARE plastic and flimsy... Plus they have some type of hole punch design... It's pretty whack.

Default looks good

So just FYI to everyone, I ordered the grill from customtc.com and it looks like it will fit my '08. I am painting it before I actually attach it, but I held it in place and it is very close to the same size.

can't wait to get rid of the swiss cheese crap grill, even if it doesn't make me faster.

Why does VRD's site make you agree to conditions of use before you go to the site?

No problem mister. VRD has the best grilles for the tC. They are always having sales randomly. Had to share that wealth of knowledge with you. =) You will definitely be satisfied with your purchase when you put your new grilles on. =)
