    Just an update, took only 45 minutes, and that's only because it took me 20 to find the little bag with the razor clips I had lost:frustrated: DEFINITELY no need to take the bumper off (remember mine is already CS valence. Anyway, there was such a small gap underneath, but I decided to go ahead with the push pin in the 1/4" drilled hole..Tight now!
    Here's some pics with that and the stripe..The color of the emblem on the grille is almost identical to that of the stripe...Dont expect everyone to like it, but I do, and will look way better with the Baer Red calipers on this Sunday.

    Don't mind me. That's what came to mind when I saw the grill.

    I personally prefer the before look, but it is your car.

    I actually like it. Anything that adds 'aggression' to the front end usually gets my thumbs up. :nice:

    I tend to lean more toward the stuff that presses inward (think inlet scoop) than outward.

    All in all I think it's a nice match for the chin spoiler.

    Nice color combo. I like it. How'd you get that badge to stick on the front grille? Is it just wedged in there or is it anchored some how?

    The grill I could live with. It's the stripes I couldn't.

    I think the red accents are pretty sweet! Agree the red calipers will add to it. Even on a silver car I can't stomach that silver grill...nice change.
