My CF addiction continues...
#76
I'm going to be honest and say that as beautiful as the grill is, i am not feeling it on the car. I feel like the facelift grill doesn't suit the pre-facelift cars.
It might just be the angle of the photo because I don't think pictures do our cars justice when it is taken too close to the front.
This means we need some more pictures, preferably from a bit further back.

Thx Anthony, I would tell you go for it but I'm not sure if you are **** as I am.. so the gaps near the headlights might bother u.
I can take more pics from a distance this week for u, I actually like it a lot more from far away cuz the fitment look perfect.
From close-up, the CF weave looks fantastic though. I think the facelifted grill makes our cars fresher with the single bar, too bad it was not a straight replacement & perfect fit.
You paid 3k$ for sunglasses w/o trying it?
LOL

Dome has excellent pics as well, but his grill was chrome & is now black.
I think the grill looks perfect from far away, just not so pleased when looking for close-up. So go for it Charlie if you dont mind the gaps. (shown in the pic below)

Looks awesome Meng, I think it looks alot better in those pics.
CF lip, CF grill, black roof, it all flows nicely with the white.
I think you need to wrap or plastidip the fog light housings.

Hey Meng are the modifications to the front bumper reversible when you install the facelift grill?
By the way how are you feeling the mirrors so far?

Anthony, u don't have to modify the bumper tabs/clips, u only have to enlarge the lower holes of the facelift grill cuz they don't align with the bumper clips.
Make sure u don't enlarge them too much or else the bumper clips won't hold the grill down (which is my case). My Bodyshop is planning to add material to the bumper clips to make it thicker to grab the grill holes & pull it down a bit more.
As for the CF mirrors, they look ok cuz I hardly see my car. Lol
I'm storing my car this week cuz I'm leaving for Thailand for the rest of November. In December, it should be snowing.

Thx Perry, yes I'm going to a tropical country next week. It's about 0C here vs 32C there. Lol
Perry, come visit me in January-February (coldest months of the year).. I will take u skiing.. Snow isn't that bad compared to the heat wave u get in Australia. But yeah, car going in hibernation sucks. Lol
