Have you decided which mesh to go with? I got the sample pack from custom car grills. I'm trying to decide between a few of them. I like the XXL Diamond, but the holes are fairly big and may not protect as much as I'd like.

Also, +1 on the orange corners. I thought I would have the only Autobahn with them.

I was looking at the extreme for exactly that reason.
I'll probably go with the extreme or the small..
I haven't ordered the sample pack yet. Anything else good in there?

Grats Ajax, the Autobahn is by FAR my favorite kit for the 8. Fitment looks great, lets just hope it holds up nicely.

I don't think I've ever seen an Autobahn with fog lights. Did you consider reinstalling them?

There are only a few I really liked. The woven wire looks kinda cool, but it's expensive and I'm not sure it would look that good with the bumper. I think I'm going to go with the XXL Hexagon. The site says it's similar in size to the XXL Diamond, but in the sample I got the holes are definitely smaller (although it looks like the diamond). Here's the link:

Yes. I did consider reinstalling the fogs. I'll need to get some brackets made for them though and that may take a bit. I may actually get some slightly different fogs.

And yes.. it is time for a new avatar
