Hi there guys n gals... after colour coding my side and rear skirts I'll be tacking on an STi6 front lip soon, but am also thinking of changing the grill from the plain old black honeycomb to a mesh type. I know there's an STi mesh and one as part of the WRC kit, but can't find any good pictures.

Can some kind and proud people please post piccies of the 99/00 cars with lovely mesh's on the front so I can decide what to go for...

Thanks

I want my front to look like that... I have to get the orange bits under the front indicators colour coded - looks terrible now I've got clears!

The STi6 spoiler looks great - where did you get yours from? Will go nice with the colour coded side sills, I'll try getting some piccies up soon - like yours but blue... Cheers mate

STI V6 front splitter is from TSL, its the cheapest place that does them (112quid approx) next day delivery. Grille is 60quid, i think from MRO!

I am really chuffed with my front end, looks nice and aggressive, but not over the top!

Look forward to seeing the pics of ur car!!

exactly - make it look individual without being too lairy. That's why I colour coded my side and rear skirts, rather than going mad with much lower items from MRO or the mental Veilside.

What's the quality like on the TSL item? Scoobysport sell an official STi6 made from ABS (whatever that is?) and it's nearly £300 ! Would it be worth the extra for the quality? i.e. does yours have problems with stone chips or whatever when driving at speed? If not, I'll just order one from TSL...

Thanks

To be honest with you mate, i would have thought it was more the quality of the paint job that would resist stone chips, however mine has been on for a month or so and the actual splitter itself has no cracks etc in it! So i would say the TSL one is good value for money!- but its just my opinion.

I cant fault the grille from MRO either, its a cracking bit of kit!

the STI-6 splitter TSL sell is the genuine item too... as far as i know..!

anyone got a front end picture of one with the silvery STi mesh?

just to get this thread back alive, incase you see it Dunc20, I went for the STi6 front splitter and the WRC front grille. I wanted to keep the badge.

Don't have any pictures yet - but will post here when I do! but it looks sooooooo good. Especially with the orange bits blue too!

You can see the WRC grille on www.tsl-motorsport.co.uk (where I bought them from)
Painted by Darcy at Prestige in Westcliff, if anyone's interesed.
