Where did you get ethese inserts for the stock SS 1LE grill?

It looks like the lower trim level Charger, it’s not an exact copy obviously, but the whole gloss black center part of the bumper looks very similar.

The whole gloss black bumper trend to me comes from taking something that doesn't look aggressive/sporty and trying to make it look aggressive and sporty.

Yep, almost all new Toyota vehicles are like this. It’s annoying to see a high performance car hop on this trend.

That's actually a whole new grill.

The 1LE looks way better in my opinion with my 3 min crappy Paint work



I Like that look even better than phase 1 with the more agressive bumper

You guys above are both wrong! Lol They're vinyl from camaroswag. Pain in the butt to install due to the angles. Just a subtle tie in to the red calipers. They come in other colors too. If you get tired of the look, just peel them off

I definitely like the 19 better especially the hood and tail lights.

Much better with just the Bowtie moved, now paint the black center bar body color and it will be perfect.
