It took me almost 3 hours to install, didn't break anything and the fitment was great. I would say it definitely worth the time!!!

I've ordered the Chargespeed center frame for the front bumper and the fitment was alright. The cf was really well done, but there are little gaps here and there that I can't get rid of. I know it's not the grille garnish, but I would assume they would be of the same quality

I just installed my S-Syle carbon fiber grille, the other day.



Install time took me and my buddy about 3-4 hours and thats because we took our time with it, to make sure the fitment would be precise.

Both, the upper and lower wire mesh are still on the bumper. There are screws holding the grille in place, just like the stock one. I had to drill small holes into the 'humps' of the grille (just like the stock one).

What do you mean? There is nothing to drill into.

bringing this back..

recently bought the s type grille, before reading all this on the thread, wish i did..

But where exactly did everyone make the holes on this thing to screw it in. It just has those bumps all around it for idk what reason. And then the mesh has no where to be held up by? Took my bumper off to take a look, and realized this wont be an easy 1 2 3 job so had to put it back on.

Also those pins that hold the mesh, any specific way to remove them without breaking them..
