the grille looks good! glad to see someone else on here went with the full billet.

verdict is still out on the exhaust. i think that is something i would have to see in person. IMO.

i still want that hood tho!!!

Yeah i pulled my front bumper off to put on the grill. only way to do it lol.
And yes it is a splitter to the dual. I love the way it looks and Sounds.

Next on my list has to be the push button start. still thinking.

alright. im down here in beaumont. and yea, i didnt go that complete route for my grille. i noticed from the directions and the hardware that you would have to pull the bumper to attach the grille. no bueno. a lot more work than i wanted to do by myself and i was anxious to get it on. i went the cheap easy route and just used zip ties to attach mine to the stock grille. no one could ever notice!! :) and the side pieces i just screwed into the stock plastic fillers. not the absolute best way to put the grille on, but it works and no one will ever know the difference.

for my exhaust, i was going to add an aftermarket muffler. was looking at magnaflow. but with mine being a 2011, they were having issues with making the muffler fit. apparently not much clearance. anyways, so i went again the easy cheap route....i just cut my muffler off and ran straight pipe out the back. since our car runs a stock resonator, it sounds really good! pretty loud and IMO better than it did with the magnaflow on it. i've gotten a lot of compliments on how my exhaust sounds

Pulling the bumper off really isnt that much work. just 6 or so bolts, and like 8 pins to pull out. Just suxed i went into it with no clue or dirrections lol just went with what i saw...

Well tomorrow im ordering my new push buttons start yay :) will post pics when its installed. cant wait.

youll learn that pulling the front bumper is required for a lot of mods on our car. quite easy now that ive done it a million times. just got a grille myself. 82$ shipped.

$629 for carbon fiber. you can also get it for $350 in poly.

believe me ive checked!!

Plus you pay about $150 shipping since it goes freight.

So you have to add that to the price of the hood

I prefer carbon for hoods though. just like the look of carbon. Poly is good for lips, bumbers etc.

Well i decided against push button start for now since i have to much money in my car. I rather not have someone being able to just break in it and push a button and drive away.... lol So instead i went for remote start And the Bypass for $500 installed (Viper 5701 Responder LE 2 Way Remote Start System ) Will be rdy to install next thursday cant wait ^_^

front grill looks pretty nice but the hood is too much for me with the louvers...id rather some go fast than look fast but thats just an opinion..glad that your doing it big!

yes i would rather it go fast than look fast but to be honost there isnt much u can do to really make a big differance on the whole fast thing. I would love to lower it but i was plaining on low profile tires and do to my custom muffler i dont know if i could lower it as well with out the muffler scrapping. who knows we will see
