My SP grill should be here this next week. I got an emblem and some heavy duty outdoor double sided tape by 3M.

Well, I ordered my SP grill yesterday. 190USD delivered to Winnipeg, Canada. No plan for an emblem. I completely debadged the rear end last weekend, and I think the G will look awesome with no badges whatsoever.

You can order it prepainted, but I've heard that the quality is quite poor. I plan to take it to a body shop and have it professionally done.

Thanks! The grille does look really good and my body shop got the paint perfect. Fitment was pretty good as well. Only time consuming part was mocking up the grille and measuring the hole locations to be drilled out.

I live in Winnipeg, Canada, and received the grille in 4 days (from Hong Kong)!

Thumbs up my review of the sp grill

Well, I installed the SP grill. It was a pain in the *** to install (had to drill the holes myself). Fitment is fairly good. Not perfect, but I think I'm the only one that notices, as I've had lots of positive comments. Overall, I'm very happy with this grill. I have to say, though, if I had to do it again, I would likely go with the authentic Gialla - from what I've read, a breeze to install and perfect fitment.
