'05 grille options? part 1

'05 grille options?
I'm running w/my stock grille, but thought about upgrading. I've seen the Charge Speed grille. Are there any other aftermarket '05 compatible options? Thanks in advance...

I have been wondering this as well. Only thing is, there dont seem to be any grills I want, and I have lloked. On my 03, it was easy, the sti grill looked killer. Now I have an 05 sti, the grill is just acceptable. None of the aftermarket units strike me as much as the sti unit for the bugeyes;(

when you dremel your emblem out, doesnt it show the cut? That's why im afraid to do it
Homerisking 09-04-2005 03:27 AM

bump for ESEMES's work....the quality of the paint and clearcoat is well worth the $
suiveam 09-04-2005 04:28 AM

I have the chargespeed grille. It looks good but have a slight problem with the closing of the hood as other people having this grille have. I doesn't really bother me. For the zerosports "grille" that was posted previously i have the impression that it is not a grille, it is just a CF piece that is installed in front of the grill (on thr bumber).

correct,held on by double-sided tape

I had one fitted to my car for all of about 1 hour :rolleyes:

...It is a quality fit tho and would suit black or blue cars a million X's better

It depends how good you are with a dremel. I cut it out and sanded it down and it is pretty clean but nothing like Esemes. His are awesome.
suiveam 09-04-2005 10:22 AM

@UKjon: nice car ;)
ESEMES 09-04-2005 10:47 AM

see the cutout area?

Where's the "augment" ?
ESEMES 09-04-2005 10:28 PM

^^ the RHS of the grille is trimmed out to allow the snorkel mouth better airflow....^^^^

i have better installed pics somewhere...

do you see what im sayin?

es
bfarm 09-04-2005 10:32 PM

I was also wondering about this augment. So it's not to allow for any type of aftermarket intake or anything... it just opens up airflow around the stock intake location?
BIGSKYWRX 09-04-2005 10:32 PM

I understand the concept- I'm not seeing it w/ those two photos :(
ESEMES 09-04-2005 10:34 PM

[IMG]http://www.gsxrpaddock.com/files/dscf0012_160.jpg[/IMG]

this way, the scoop gets a bigger path of direct airflow...

(this was the very first grille done, with no gloss or clearcoat.....)

BIGSKYWRX 09-04-2005 11:11 PM

now I see it :) thanks
