Thumbs up 2008 Lancer Carbon Fiber Grill installed..

So, I got my RRM CF grill installed, and it looks EXTREMELY sexy if I do say so. I was going to take some more, but as you can tell by the pics, it started to rain. I plan on taking better pics on a better day, of my complete car, once it comes out of the body shop Take a look, let me know what you think. Will post a how to when I get a chance and batteries on camera charge up







My fav pic, only because it looks really mean in this pic

LOL, yeah, I second that, I thought it would cost $120 the most. Looks to be a bit overpriced but then again no one else is offering this yet so they have a monopoly on this piece for now

Dude didnt you know that thin layers of carbon fiber over fiberglass is the "in" thing right now? It makes your car super hawt for all the honeys and super fly for all the trick nabbits.

But to be serious, 280 is a price that the kids are willing to pay for their "CF", so why charge less?

wow 280? lol... thats the same price i got for am OEM Bumper. Shoulda just painted it black (Sand, Prime, Coat) ...couldve cost u less than $50. And i kind of not feel the lack of emblem there... it really needs it. Maybe we need photos from at least 10 / 15 / 30 feet away

nah, no removal of the bumper at all. it was a really easy install, and only took me about maybe 15-20 minutes tops. yes, you have to remove the whole stock grill to put this one in. ill post up a how to soon, as soon as i get my car back from the body shop. getting a something done that no one has yet!
