Default Revolution "Hawkeye" 06 Onward Lower grills (Black)

Hi everyone

We are setting up a group buy on "Hawkeye" 06 onwards lower grills

These fit both WRX and STi

Designed and manufactured exclusively for ourselves in powder coated, high-tensile steel by the same company that supplies Prodrive, Mclaren Mercedes, Jaguar, Westfield just to name a few.

A simple, yet effective addition to any 2006 Impreza, this lower front grille not only matches the upper design for an awesome look but protects the radiator from damage that can result in overheating and engine failure - yet only takes minutes to fit.

Available in black only and supplied with fitting kit and Revolution Grille badge.






These grills all come boxed, with metal brackets and fixings and are a very easy fix onto the front bumper.

10 or more people wanting to place an order and make a group buy list will get these at £89.99 each.

For those who just cant wait we will do a special price of £99.99 !!!
Please ring and quote the group buy thread if you want one asap.

Delivery is £10.00 to most places in the UK
Highlands and islands can be a little more so please check

All prices include VAT

If a list is started we can go from there!!!!!!!

Many thanks

Colin@revolution

Anymore info on how these are fixed on? eg do they fit any existing holes or does it use self tappers into new ones? Can you show a close up pic of where the fixings are? Thanks in advance.

There are no existing holes so you would need to drill 3 x 3mm holes and use the supplied fitting kit to secure.

The kit comes with self tapping screws and speed clips to go behind the bumper.

There are brief instructions included.

These can be fitted without the need to remove the bumper.

Very simple to do !!

Presumably these would also fit the MY06-07 non-turbo R-Sport and RX models - since they use the same front bumper as the WRX ??

Well, I have ordered a new RX, won't be here until June, but put me down for one of the lower grilles on this GB.
A friend of mine bought a new Accord - couple of days later a stone went under the bumper and hit the A/C condenser - put a hole in it - £500 bill (obviously not covered by warranty)!
I don't know why manufacturers leave these big gaps under the bumper with no grille - they are ripe for stone damage to the radiator and condenser...

As per sandycam's post, is there any chance you could please supply some pictures of the actual fixings where it attaches to the bumper.

I've been interested in one of these for a while now, but I'm not 100% I want to start drilling holes in my pride and joy.

Thanks
Kevin

Tried contacting you twice through your website regarding ease of fitting,without reply !

But having seen this thread i assume it's easy enough.

As far as I'm concerned, I'd don't mind if it takes 10 minutes or 10 hours to fit, I'd just like to see an actual close up of the fixtues when it's on the car.

Thanks

Nope, my car's just filthy as I use it every day and one of the roads I have to use is also being used by a fleet of dumper trucks full of mud/dirt which 1/2 of it ends up on the bloody road and the front of my car!!!!

I see that Prodrive are also doing one of these grills.

Is it exactly same as the Revolution one?

Anybody got one fitted?

The only Prodrive lower grille I see is for the previous model ('03-'05). Not seen one for the Hawkeye.....If one exists can you supply a link?
