let us know how fitment is and whats in the package. I see some pictures they actually use the oem mesh on the car but the picture of the item has a different mesh.

ILowNslowI has this grill on his car. He posted up some pics a week back or so.

The 3rd pic is actually just the OEM grill painted all black, its not their product. I don't know why its there. It uses a thinner mesh than oem which is going to show more of that area. I'm getting the RMI scoops installed so it'll look good. I would like it better if they used the OEM mesh but I think it'll look great the way I have it pictured in my head

A nice clean look, especially the stealth look with black.

Love the CF hood and liking the grill... but i just dont like that you can see straight into the radiator like that... maybe if the mesh on it was slightly thicker?
