FYI on the altezza style grill......
I'm fycking pissed.......I finally recieved my front bumper (mine got ruined).....and I was installing it last night.....well I had the altezza grill too that I was installing....well I took the stock one apart and crap.....just figured I'd throw the altezza in and thats that.
Well, the plastic piece that covers your radiator and has the 4 plastic pop-out prong things......that will NOT be installed when you put the altezza grill in.(grill came w/ no instructions)
I was frustrated cutting the f *cking thing last night w/ a jig saw.......still couldn't figure it out......(then I called overthetop down in Cali and he told me what was up)........
So to those that don't know that.....just thought I'd save you a headache.......
peace, trevor

its cause the altezza grill is made for the sedan. if you get the back peice of the stock grill from a sedan and put it on our coupe along with the grill, it should fit fine...
to anyone with the xenon bodykit:
what kind of altezza grill work. ill be getting my kit soon and want to replace the grill with as few hassles as possible.
thanx

really??........sweet, thank you very much
I pu the Altezza grill on my stock bumper and it fit like a glove. I left the piece that covers the radiator off because i thought it looked better. Since I have the coupe, I wopuld have needed to get the plastic piece for the sedan($12) but i did not want to spend the extra $12.
Here is what mine looks like...
