this is prolly going to sound stupid but I cant find anything on this.. but im searching on pfyc.com for the recessed grilles... when you select the menu options, for the top grilles it says not recessed... whats the difference between recessed and not recessed

recessed = grilles aren't as "flush" with the body, they are sunken in and look great. not worth the price imho but they look fly for sure. one way to notice the difference is the recessed grilles have a larger bottom border (chrome part of the stock upper grilles) which reaches from where the bumper starts to where the grilles reach in toward the radiator...

You can usually find them a LOT cheaper on ebay. Just need to be patient.

The upper recessed looks very good and gives a meaner look, the lower is nice as well but not as noticeable
