Not sure i like the red subie logo.. Will wait and see... from a distance it looks really sharp.

the grillcraft bottom grill was a bit.. and there is no way to get the bottom screw in as the directions state. it falls right under the location where the plastic snap/grommet holds the bumper cover on. Instead i drilled a couple of small holes in the plastic center piece which runs from top to bottom and used black zip ties.. Even the side screws were royal hell.. I used some electricians tape to get the back/nut stuck on and then used a couple of fingers to push it on the screw. Also couldnt not get a small screwdriver iin behind due to the angle. eventually with much swearing got them in.

Taking the bumper cover off would be easier but it looks like a bi**h also.

next is rear sway bar and some mudflaps.

Red badge looks cheap. The rest looks great.

ravspeconline sells it also on their website but interestingly enough it is more with shippipng than ebay. even though they are paying ebay and paypal fees.. go figure.

I should have done the same thing ......

That lower grill was a real pain in the ............

Bumper removal is not really that hard. Just have to be careful of the clips. I removed my bumper to put my HIDs on. Just held on by a bunch of pop screws, would have made the lower grille installation easier.

The grills look real nice! Good work!

Grills look good... not feeling the red badge.

Colors that are the same have to be colormatched to look right. I could put that red emblem on either of my cars but it just doesn't work on a red one inho.

Think this would have looked better?

You're on a modding roll man.. happy for you. About the red emblem, yes it might be different in person. I would try an ala-K2 gear emblem with the CF in a light bronze-ish hue with the red LGT. That's just me though.

Good job on the grill, also not feeling the badge. Keep up the good (modding) work!
