I just took out my grills and painted them silver. You can look on my cardomain page. I like how they look. I've never liked the mesh inserts. You could paint them white, silver, or something else depending on the color of your car

Mad-Machine is totally right, dropping your car even an inch changes the whole look of your car. it looks awesome.

as for that grill on the outter part of your bumper. I've tried to do this a couple times. www.Grillcraft.com makes these, but NOT for hyundais. What you'll need to do is solder/weld some sort of frame around the outside of the mesh, for support, shape, and so the ends don't scratch your paint. Visions and I talked about doing this early last year, but we never got around to finalizing the idea. If you end up doing it, you could probably make a good chunck of change if you made many and sold them.

I was thinking about just dropping it a little and putting some splitters on it. Any thoughts on this? Here are a couple splitters http://www.importtrenz.com/customer/home.php?cat=29 I like the Evo ones. You guys think it would look good?

Ya, after I posted I looked at the price. Might as well just get a new front. It's about the same price. I'm not too partial to the euro lights. I like the look of the stock lights more. I was thinking about rims, but it's a lot of money. What do you mean tinting? Tinting what?

I tinted my reversing/rear blinkers. It was very easy.. I pulled the assemblies from the car, pulled the lamps.. and sprayed some "tint" spray that I had into the inside of the lens. Up close it could be better.. but from ten feet away, it changed the entire look of the rear of the car.
