FiestaZpower Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Yesss!! i received and fitted my RS grill today - many thanks to dan for the heads up with these,, top guy- the only down side apart from waiting for a month to come from Thailand is that where the original one marked my bumper a bit - this item damages the car less than the original ! & my number plate is too big to fit the gap. Going to get a sticker made up .. Did think if sawing the ends of my number plate? .. May still do that And I'm not too sure if I've clipped the bottom bit of the grill in properly though I checked out inaths video on YouTube & it helped me lots putting it on . im super happy with it...

D13 HPD 95 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Well it was no problem m8 ;) got yours on before me -.- jokes mate mines now sat at the sprayers being done in gloss black ;) one week to wait woop :) look great m8!!!

FiestaZpower Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 ;) nice ! They must have been together on the boat from Thailand , I've never seen so much bubble wrap on something - mine was wrapped up so well it took 10min with a knife and scissors to open it up :) .. Ran outside and popped mine on soon as I got it ... Quite a lot lighter than the other grill too .. So weight has been taken off the car too ;)... I'm keeping all my plastics Matt black on the car for now - but want to get them sprayed for sure makes them look lots better .... For now i just spray them with silicone spray ... When they go grey and need shine ... What are you going to do about the front number plate on yours Dan? Sticker or cut your plate down ? - mine is stuck on my dash board with double sided tape so it don't move while I figure that out ....

D13 HPD 95 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Yh i know what you mean, never seen soo much bubble wrap in my life haha, I havnt test fitted mine yet toke one photo, checked the number plates and made a mark so i can cut them down, then off to the painter haha but ive got some gel domed plates to fit so i will just cut them down a little :) and yh it should be done within a week im hoping :) then selling my asain grill if anyone wants it? I recommend getting them painted looks 100x better!! Looks good in the normal paint anyway so cannot wait to see what gloss black looks like ;) and yes a lot lighter!! Also i might take the plastic mesh off and put gloss black stainless steel on there ?? What you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D13 HPD 95 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Sorry to say they aint on eBay any more i know the seller Rex said he doesn't make them a lot once a couple of months he does. But does anyone know how i can cut my front number plate to make it fit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiestaZpower Posted February 21, 2014 Author Share Posted February 21, 2014 I'd stick jap / American style number plates on if only mountune USA sent these number plate frames to any other place apart from USA and Canada!! .....they are $7.99 for two.. Look so good ! IMO. Damn it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiestaZpower Posted February 21, 2014 Author Share Posted February 21, 2014 The first three letters of Japanese was removed from the comment above ... That's strange :-/ is that rude? Lol anyway ... Cutting down the original front number plate to make it fit with a hacksaw / coping saw is a good plan for now and a bit of sanding round the edges to round em off a bit ... going to do that soon - I'm going to attach it with foam sticky sick pads so I don't have to put screw holes in it the lovely new RS grill.. ;) the number plates over there are shorter & wider, that's why our Thailand RS grills won't fit euro plates ... here are some other ideas sticker on bonnet ......... Sticker on bumper or get one like this made up I think.. <<< the best one I think ... I put in an order for the sticker front number plate with DMB today ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
