Looks great? Matches the badging too.

Thanks for the sympathy. In partial compensation, my residential property tax is rather low.

Sounds great. What color is your car?

I feel your pain, just registered mine in NC for the first time and had a similar experience

Instead of paying $350 for the grill mesh...got some materials from custom car grill and DIY-ed it for about 70 bux and 3 hrs of time. Was a little worried about removing the front bumper since i can never get things to aligned perfectly afterward (and i am ocd so even if its a little off i will notice it) but at the end it wasnt that bad. Now i dont have to be constantly worrying about rocks busting my radiators. (is really bad here in socal, a frd of mine had his share on a BMW last month)

A new battery, first major service, clear LED markers, new MPS4S tires, new key fob batteries. Mooty was not kidding when he said hookers and blow would have been the cheaper vice...
