Aznmode:

Where did you purchase your grill? Am I wrong in saying that fitment is spot on? No gaps?

I think it's pretty good although really don't have anything to compare it to. Maybe you can be the judge.

It's a 2012 but I had to modify my car to make it fit. Or you can modify the grill itself. I posted the mod below along with the link to the seller. Also I plasti dipped everything but whatever you see that's chrome. Those parts used to be gloss black.

Doing my best to make OEM fitment look good.

didn't have time to do a car wash but just had enough time to catch the sun.

Thanks. Totally worth the upgrade for me. The smaller diameter makes it feel like a better car. The old steering seemed sloppy and lose. This one feels much tighter and more connected to the road somehow. 1 handed steering for me is much easier now due to the smaller diameter and my arm doesn't have to go as far out. The added thickness feels better as well.

If you're not sure what steering or airbag to look for or to make sure you are getting the right combination. This might be a useful read.

Car looks awesome but yeah thats the issue with luxury is that the tire gap is kinda too much. I have one too and I'm saving up for coilovers soon

I don't know why it would be sketchy? I have one and the wheel gap is gone, and the ride quality is close to stock on the comfort wise and handles better definitely on attacking turns.

Just got mine 3 weeks ago. So far i've added philips diamond vision h7 bulbs for my low beam, AZN optics LED's for my parking lights, 20% tint all around, and plastidipped my 18" amg rims and decals. Thinking about dipping the grille, getting black side markers, and possibly a drop with the HR super sports. It's a lease so I dont want to do TOO much to it.

Yup! our stock lug bolts are only 30mm i believe. So you'll need atleast 45mm (M14x1.5) for a 15mm wheel spacers.
