It looks fantastic (i have the same Sepang Blue) but I wouldn't recommend anyone these.

if you want Black Optics package kinda look you can achieve with Halo EFX like Ryan did.

Yeah, I kinda like the honeycomb grill, matches the lower grills better, and also don't like all the chrome/metal on the front strips. I didn't go Black Optics because I didn't like the rims that came with it, and was planning on getting this grill anyway.. now maybe will have to do Halo EFX blackout....

Good thing I don't sensors (yet, I envy drivers who do). Did anyone take any pictures with the grill without the Quattro? I'm looking to black out my car and this would work perfectly! How difficult was it to install the grill?

Interesting. Thanks for your input. Looks like I'll have to pass now that I've heard a lot of people have had issues with the sensors.

Heres a photo of my car without the quattro lettering

The installation is pretty straightforward. Took me about an hour and a half doing it myself.

I bought one of the first ones and I spent 20-30 mins playing with the sensors to get them in the right spot. They are both positioned differently, but I just went with whatever worked. Have rarely had an issue after that.

What did you do to get them i the right spot? A friend of mine (who owns a body shop) helped me install it and it couldn't seem to fix the constant interference

this mod is really sounding like a fail.

you need to remove the bumper to install.
it will make your parking sensors beep incesantly
it does not even look as cool as the stock grill

just my .02
XDDDDDDDDDDDDD
