What is your preferred grill treatment for a C6 and from where?

I would never
grill a C6. I don't care what you marinate it in, it will still be tough and gritty.
As far as
grilles go... my tough as nails, unobtrusive DIY:

Man, just as in real life, I go with no "grill." I like the grill on my car just like my teeth, straight and clean.

Look Ma no braces, Mercado is the way I went because it keeps the Original look.
I like the round holes much better & the quality is A1.
Thats not an area I want to bling.

Racemesh if the vendor ever ships it! So much for stating that it's in stock. CC has cleared and nothing from the vendor for nearly 4 weeks.

That sux man!
Maybe the Racemesh rep will come to your house and install it for you, like the rep from Mercado Grilles went to Bluejet's house to install his.
The rep flew 2000 miles or something.......now thats customer service!
I hope you get your product soon.

Took about 3 1/2 weeks (was told by the owner when I ordered it that it would take 3-4 weeks) to get my BLACK Racemesh grill (decided the stainless steel would make the front end stand out too much but does hide the eggrate great unlike the black grill) which came in last week. You need not worry about Racemesh...the owner is a first class guy and is extremely helpful. In the meantime, I dont like the stock eggcrate (even with the black Racemesh grill hiding it a bit) showing at all that I decided to remove it, and did a custom install of the Racemesh all by its lonesome using angle brackets and double sided VHB tape. Will post pics later as I am waiting for the VHB double tape to cure. Glad I got the Racemesh grill instead of the Mercado exterior euro grill as its flimsy cheap trim around it (told to me by another forum member) would not allow it to be installed by its lonesome. Racemesh flexible PCV rubber trim is firm and there is enough material of it to be used for stand alone use.
