Default ECS Tuning RS5 Grill

Has any one installed the ECS RS5 black mesh grill? How well does it fit? Did you do it yourself? I don't want to tear the front of the car off and find out I have to trim, squeeze, file, etc to get it to fit.

There is no trimming of any of the factory body parts needed to install our grille. See our Installation PDF below.

I bought one and installed it about 2 month ago. It fits really well. No body modification necessary. The only thing I'm not as hot about is the rings are more "protruded" than that of the RS5. The rings seem more vertical than on the RS5 which looks at about the same angle as that of the grill. But it really does look awesome and fits very well. It's constructed about as well as I think a sub $400 grill can be, but a rock wo (would certainly take out a section of it with a direct hit.

Still, I'm VERY happy with the look. I have the gloss back and it really looks incredible, and was a cinch to install. And on top of that ECS is a stand-up company with great customer service. I'm pretty sure it's the exact same China one you can get on eBay periodically for less, but buying from a reputable company like ECS is worth the extra dollars in my opinion (think of it as insurance).

FYI, no attempt to create an account on the ECS site works using Safari, at least. FWIW.
