Boe knows Im not one to pat RRM on the *** just because its RRM, but I have the gen 1 grill (with exposed screws) and it fits fine. If the Gen 1 fits fine, Im sure the new ones will be perfect from them. Just my opinion..

Heres a link to a quick pic. (I still have not grasped how to put a pic that has already been uploaded into a new post...)

My RRM grill is tight! Fits perfect... never had any issuses. That grill from cerious looks seriously like a straight copy from RRM. In my book that sh** isn't cool. If your gonna make your own product, ceriously, use your own design.

isnt the cerious grill waaaay cheaper than the RRM. i think the price they have at cerious for the carbon fiber grill can only buy you the fiberglass one from RRM.

azhunballa- Yes you are right. They both sell grills for 179..but the CP one is Carbon Fiber while the RRM is Fiberglass. If I had it to do all over again I'd have the CF CP grill, oh well

Well that should make up someones mind right there. If everyone is saying the quality is good for both RRM and Cerious Performance, why not go the one that's cheaper? You get the same qualiy at a cheaper price.

The picture of the RRM grill on page 1 is of my car. I bought my evo style from road race over a year ago. that picture was taken 1 year after i put it on. no fading, no chipping , perfect fit and its version 3. true about UPS, i picked mine up. my car is hardly garaged and sits in the sun all day. I live in riverside so theres alot of sun and heat! still no fading! check out my gallery to see more pics.

the CP carbon fiber is twisted! i wouldn't buy that.

i dont like either and the fact that you can see through them, i think the ralli art is a way better choice

k, heres coming from a pevius CP grill owner.

i bought the CP non cf evo grill on ebay from CP for 120 shipped. i couldnt be happier.. at the time. the grill was great, perfect fit, looked clean, and it was primered and ready to paint. then i saw the ralliart grill on eby for 150 shipped! holy ****!! i jumped on right away and now i have a sexy yellow RA grill on my car that not only covers where the hood is seen through the cp grill, but also the mesh is the same exact as the stock meshing on my bumper!

so in summary, CP grill, great product, great price. but RA grill won me over at the end. rrm grill not tested

the only thing i didnt like about the rrm ones when trying to match with a vis carbon fiber hood is that they both use a different mesh, i like the mesh that vis useses over rrm

CP's grill doesn't match my C-Wings cf hood. It would be very coincidental for them to match. Two pieces from 2 different companies aren't going to match.

It doesn't look bad though. With the cf grill and cf hood, you don't see anything through the Evo style grill since the hood is black beind it. Awesome! If you get an Evo style grill, maybe paint the back behind it black.

Not sure what mesh comes with the RRM one, but the CP's mesh looks awesome.
