Default Installed L-Tuned Grill

I doubted intalling other grills on my car...but I like this new look much better.

Before - Sportdesign


Now - L-Tuned

Hard to believe that a grill gives it more of an edge Looks Great!

Hell yeah! Love your L-Tuned grill.

One thing to note with these and other grills, even the precisely made L-Tuned grill can be improperly installed so that the top edge isn't quite even across the top as far as gap to the hood, but it can be played with to get it right (loosen the bolts a bit, push and pull here and there, and re-tighten). It bugs me to no end to notice out of alignment grills in pictures, and having had stock, the RMM grill (almost impossible to align straight - or at least I could never get it right) and L-Tuned (got it wrong then fixed it), I've had some experience!

Anyway, grill looks really great - big improvement to go with your kit.

Thanks, guys! I also have the L-tuned sideskirts (not installed). I've been told that the sideskirtsare actually the factory Aristo, Japanese, sideskirts. What's the difference between the US sideskirts and the Japanese?
