don't think so. since there's a break in the paint, i think it'll look kinda weird.

I wonder how it looks like with a plate there

The first aftermarket grille that does the job IMO. Still need to address the corner of the bumpers near the cooler ducts--we need an "A" shape not a "V" shape there. Otherwise this is a pretty nice aero program, looks better on the grey car.

It really isn’t so bad. The MSRP is $1500 and it can be hard for less if you know who to ask even the MSRP is less than an M Performance lip, side skirts, diffuser, etc. so it really isn’t that outlandish at all IMO.

I agree. Hopefully the shop that installs mine can maybe fabricate something. jeff@autocouture

For those who complain about the front end.....
Have you seen it in person? I too thought it was hideous until I did.

Like the different front, especially in CF. Glad there is a screen behind it.

I wish we didn't have the winglets on the side. Rear wing, unique and innovative.

haven't posted in a long time, but felt compelled to. 100% absolutely killed it with the grill. It's such an awesome interpretation of the G80 design style, which definitely left much to be desired from the factory. If I had a g80 I'd definitely have ordered one already

They managed to give the front end a nice treatment and I like when the grille is color-matched as it blends the front very well.

Very nice kit, but overall, it makes an already over the top factory styling even more Fast 'n Furious-ish.

Exactly my thought. The two massive holes aren't for me. As it is isn't going to be a nightmare to clean up the bugs in the radiator ducts. This will be next level.

It's a nice option for us that want to change it up.

I think it looks good if you have the carbon vents. Wonder what it'd look like for us who have the mesh on the sides.

Just my 2.0 cents. Rear spoiler looks Yuk! Front Grill looks similar to the 2023 LCI.

Doesn't look bad but I think takes away from the menacing stock look

That's already how it is, the stock grill doesn't do jack. Mesh will stop the leaves from getting in, but the rest...?

I'll live with it.

That front grill is seriously the best I've seen. It doesn't hide or try to obscure the original grill, but the internal structure cleans it up so nicely. Almost like you get 2 grills in one; the bigger one plus the 'regular' size grill. Well done, well done.

Front Lip really looks great, Front grille looks pretty good too but OEM really does looks way better in person, Rear wing I'm not quite sure.

I'm with the minority who prefer a more subtle OEM+ look. Even the M-Performance exhaust looks too JDM for my bland taste.

This attempt looks hideous and too Fast n' Furious. The rear spoiler and wannabe racecar grill looks out of place on a 4dr sedan. A stylized carbon version of the existing grill would have been nice

So sick. Completely changes the look for me. Ordered mine yesterday directly through Vorsteiner because I simply couldn't wait and didn't want to miss out. Forgot to ask: How long is the wait now that it is out and ordered?
