3rd Batch of Grill Kits Currently in Production.
As previously, I am offering the popular Grill kits as a service to forum members worldwide.
The ordering instructions can be found here:
Grill Kit Ordering Instructions (http://rx8.hymee.com/GrillOrderingInfo.pdf)
The aim is to protect the air conditoning condensor (mine was pierced by a stone - $800 to replace) and the oil cooler(s).
Cheers,
Hymee.

Hymee, don't mean to sound dumb, but...
What's the difference between the single and twin oil cooler grills? Single meaning 1 oil cooler grill? Why would I want to only cover one?

If you only have one, you only need to protect 1. All RX-8s in Australia only have 1 oil cooler, both Std-Power and Hi-Power.
In other parts of the world, the Hi-Power models get 2 oil coolers. Hence the "twin" option.
Cheers,
Hymee.

The oil cooler grills don't seem to be cut for those of us who have fog lights. The fog lights are rounded and the pic shows a flat inboard side. OR Is the oil grill intended to just sit behind the fog light?

Maybe this is something I need to come up with for my RX8. I have the fog lights, though and need to cut out for them accordingly. Also, just bought a fin comb to straighten out the radiator and oil coolers' fins.......................bent by rocks, etc.....

Guys,
The oil cooler grill is designed to fit cars with or without fog lights.
I haven't got photos of the kit on a car with fog lights, but I have seen one fitted. Maybe some happy customer might like to chime in with a picture of there grill kit installed with fog lights in place?
There are about 4 guys in the US with these fitted.
Cheers,
Hymee.
