Anyone try this piece on their car? I'm headed to HK in a bit so going to see it in person but curious if anyone has ordered it or has something similiar?

I've looked at them several times, as well as the offering from Carnewal. Carnewals is super expensive with the exchange - these seem more reasonable. I know the Carnewals were factory parts (at least that's what they claim).

I would be interested in knowing if these are quality or not.

Project Cars items are real junk. I had it on my GT3 along with some of their other parts and all have been removed. The bolt sleeves stripped out on installation and it had to be glued on from the top and later the corner broke off. Very poor quality and brittle CF.

Juan, you seem to have all the "Toys" hehehe

I should just wait for you to part out your car and buy your parts!

Do you remember how that piece is removed for replacement? Any pics of the final product on your car? Your GT3 is my fav. car on this board btw

I'll give RSS a call today to see if they have it in stock and price, thanks for the tip.

Hey Rick the Champion guys do all my work. I just pay the bills. Can call them if you'd like they're great guys.
The piece is very good quality from Cargraghic. As I said before I also got the CF mirrors.
Have you seen the GT3 with the components? Here is a link with pics of an earlier project:

You'll see the CF front "smiley" grill and the mirrors.
Go for it,

Angry

For those of you installed the CF grill yourself. Is there another piece that is attached to the bumper itself in the center opening just below the grill so you can mount your GT3(smiling face) on to the bumper securely with the screw.

Any pic of the bumper without the grill installed(with the center opening) ?....I bought a used GT3 Cup bumper from Simon (autotalent), it seem like is missing that piece...are they glue on or what? I did see some glue left from the opening. Not sure if I am missing any parts I need to attahced the GT3 grill (smiling face)

My bodyshop think that pieces is missing, and he said he can't install the grill without the piece that is attached to the bumper in the center opening.

can anyone help out???I already contact Simon, hopfully he will look into it and provide that piece for me.

Alan

A buddy of mine just installed this piece on his car. Looks awesome and the fit and finish is second to none. He got it from a new company called Rennsport-One.

Don't waste your time w/ Projectcars piece...I tried it, and it was junk.
I had to put the stock piece back on, then ordered a CF piece from GMG.
