Well it has been a few days since I did my install
Over all I give this product a big thumbs up. It will set you apart from the pack.

The product was good quality, delivery was great and the end result is well, fantastic.

Some recommendations for buyers. Unless your comfortable grinding fiberglass and have some decent body work experience, I recommend a professional installer. It took me about 8 hours working in a body shop with some pros helping.

Big Shout out to Toxicmotorsports for helping me.

Dont install you mesh before installing the grills, especially the lower there is not much room for error there.

My only complaint with the product. The directions for the grills and spoiler are very lacking. So the only real good information that I received was off these forums. Mo, your product is toooooooo good for this. I would be happy to help you develop install resources. To me if they came with better install instructions to go with the quality of product and service you would have a major home run.

Bottom line, if your considering the products made by Danko go for it. You wont be sorry. But make sure you either have or can access professional help on the install.

LOL they are coming. I really want to do the final adjustments on the grill and do a detail before more pics. Plus the Halos are coming.

But more than likely the first real photo shoot will be the weekend after Thanksgiving
We are going to New Orleans and I figure some nice shots in the French Quarter and on St Charles street would look nice

I appreciate the good words, and you are definately right about the instructions, they need improved in a big way. However, I was under the impression that all the extra grinding you had to do was because you wrapped the mesh around the back of the lower grille and bonded it on with bondo before it was installed, that is a big no-no, actually we never even used to provide mesh with the lower grille because of the fear of someone doing just that, but too many people requested the mesh so we started offering it aswell. I agree that's it's totally my fault that I didn't make that at all clear not to do in any instructions and you are not the first to have made that mistake, so I definitely need to take care of that. As far as the out of the box fit though, I've installed several of them myself, and never had to do much or any grinding of fiberglass, we do a lot of percision grinding on all or our grills to minimize that, and I think most of the other folks who got one would agree on that one. At any rate, your car looks great, and I'm glad everything worked out.

Mo it is all good, meant the words in the kindest of ways.
I did post my question about the mesh on the Danko forum and no one responded on the mesh question so I forged on the best i could.

So like I said all in all a positive review, I would do it again but not do the lower grill.

On to the next mods

I wish I would have seen that in time to help out, it's better to PM me, I check PMs at least twice a day
