Got my tracking info on Wednesday. Was patiently waiting in my junk mail folder for me. Thought with so many tracking confirmations mine must have been mixed up somehow.

Boom! Delivered! Looks great except I specifically asked for the US license plate cover and received the European license plate cover. Oh well, I'll have Amanda send me out the correct one. Quality looks good. Let's see how difficult the install actually is...

Can you show a pic from the back to see how the lic plate holder and badge is attached?

Thanks.

Great! Does the RS badge come off?

The license plate holder is just resting on there. There is a bag of hardware that came with it also with badges, screws and stuff. I'm sorry I can't take any pictures of the back. I actually already dropped the grille off at my local body shop. I will dropping off the wife's car there probably Thursday for the install.

My tracking last updated on 3/11 as well. The last update stated it was leaving China for San Francisco. Hopefully it is moving along and I will have it shortly.

Hey Brooklyn! Got mine today, too! And I got the Euro bracket as well. Argh.

Can you let me know which body shop you're using for this? I have my eye on a couple, but they're out in LI. If you're doing this in Brooklyn I'd love to work with them since they'll have already practiced with yours!

Thanks!

Yes it does. Just plastic clips.
