Well Finally got the Grille's install on ModestoRx8 car. Let me tell you, It was an test of our skill level. But at the end, it sure did pay off. Then gave it an nice carwash and wax, and we were back in business. ModestoRx8 also added a little Grille to his Rotary Emblem inside the seats, which came out really good too. Just another day working on cars...haha!

Phat,
You can check it out the next time we all get together, I thought the rotary emblem on the front would get lost with the light colored mesh behind it, but the mesh is far enough back that it actually reflects some light and makes the emblem stand out MORE.
Silver took pity on me and is being modest, I got to learn a lot... and we got to hang out with some folks and laugh / share ideas and get stuff done.
I know many people are going to HIN, is there a time you guys want to get together to take a drive? What about a work night somewhere? hang out work on our stuff, etc. ?

The rattles are going to be an pain to find or fix, becuase it just vibrates everything. The only thing that made my engine from sounding like an rocket inside, was to convert it into an Cold Air design. Which I added an tubing down to the lower part of my grill. Which made the sound normal, and getting colder air!

Well I don't think you want to see me in an Cheerleader outfit, but I have my hope that Chad will look better than me. LOL!
Well if you ever get an chance to take apart your bumper, you will see that the stock tube piping ends right by your pass. headlight. Hot air on top, and by changing the tubing I am getting nice cold air, and air pushing into the intake filter. And it makes it not so loud.
