Thanks man thats helpful. This is probably convincing me to try wrap first instead of blowing money on the parts. Also probably the black tips too. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery right? ;-) I just bought the RS grill from EMD auto. Don't have it in hand yet but supposedly comes with the right parking sensors and a bracket for the front camera.
PS - Nice laser interceptor! I had one on my Golf R before this but didn't use it here since I'm going to an RS grill and wouldn't have a good place to mount them.
I ordered 3M vinyl from Amazon and the tools in a package. It was very inexpensive.
Hey I'm also interested in the products and tools you used, and was wondering if you could remove the vinyl if you wanted, and how long the whole process took for you? I think the black optics on the Black, silver and white S5's is the way to go. I didn't want to admit it at first, but the chrome grille does look a little "Hyundai to me
No problem. Glad to help. Let me know how the grill works out. Hopefully they got it right so I can do mine too.
car looks very sharp, I have a navarra Cabrio and am in Westchester.
where are you located? and who did the work? I think at $300, I am all in on this!
I use a pressure washer as well. I was told to treat it like it wasn’t there. So far so good. Here are the pictures you asked for. I plan to do an RS style grill eventually. I’m just waiting for one that I’m comfortable that all the bugs/fitment issues are worked out.
Looks amazing - can't believe this was only $300. More motivated to find a local shop now, big thanks. The wheels you have on, are those 19" with the stock tires? Look great as well
Would love to get 20" but I'm worried about feeling the additional bumps, etc.

I’m on Long Island in Suffolk county. I don’t think the price was anything special. You can probably find a local guy to do the job for the same money.

Actually they are 18”. I was able to use the stock tires and maintain the ride quality. Doing it this way only cost $1200. I’ve done a lot to the car in a short period of time ( AWE intake and exhaust ect...) so doing the 20” Vossens with new tires will have to wait a little while.
