Default Mesh Grill - RB320 STI

Ok most of you have prob seen the Suby RB320 with the mesh grill by now. I really like the look and I am thinking about buying similar product from griilcraft.com. Anyone else interested in ordering?

Was thinking about it but they have no pics of the silver. Not prepared to stump up before seeing a pic of how it looks. Black on Black is just to well er Black.

No reason you couldn't just spray it whatever colour you want before the install. I am going to buy the silver one so you can have a look once it arrives. Have a look at the site again, they have picture of silver grill installed on a MY05 STI.
cheers Dave

from experience spraying mesh is well...neh

needs to properly coated and differences in colour need to be minimal

little chips remove paint and it looks shite

best bet guys honestly:

1. By the exact mesh u desire (which will be heaps cheaper than grill craft)

2. Take it to a decent and reliable panel beater (as for job difficulty for them on a scale of 1 - 10, its a 0.75.......lol seriously!!

Save money, time and Hassels

my 2c........i am actually doin this on mine but its a MY00

yes it always about saving $$ but not in this case with MY06 STI, perhaps with 7 yr old rex. Thanks for suggestion though.
