I don't know the answer right now, but as time goes by I'm sure there will be more and more accessories available.

I have never seen an aftermarket grill that looks good or looks like it belongs on the car.

Rocket Bunny pic looks to have had the Bumper Beam removed. So in saying "Just take the grill off." means just take the grill, bumper beam and associated hardware off.

Just don't crash and you'll be fine.

You could also go with the smaller Beatrush Beam?

Looks like the car is screaming angrily withpout the grill. I'm personally not a fan, but I agree with the ugly aftermarket grills comment. But i'd rather no grill than aftermarket grill. Radiator showing is kinda cool.

I mean, what other kind of grill can you put? Chrome will not match at all and it will be very hard to find one that will match the clean, simple, and curvy front.
