No problem Scott, I love the RS grille so much I would have done anything to make it work. :hail:

I still think if you run HID's you don't need the doors to open. I am running Bosch bright headlights and I have enough light to see at night with them closed.

:yes: I agree.

Where there is a will...there is a way. :cool: With all the other cool, custom stuff you have done, this should be nothing. :thumbsup:

Scott, as was said earlier,RS or no RS the car is still going to ROCK!! As the saying goes..Function before Form. Put it like this way..More HP or RS front end..No brainer?? LOL!

Oh, it will definitely work if I just run the lights through the doors. I'm just not real wild about that. I like the standard front, too.

What about custom fabbing an intercooler that will fit with the RS headlights?

XcYZ 03-31-2006 10:19 AM

Trevor, that's an option as well.

It sounds like everyone likes the RS more than I do. :)

Scott dont fall under the pressure. The standard frontlooks killer. I used to like the RS front but I think the Standard just has a Bad A$$ look to it where as the RS is more refinded looking. LOL

Your renderings of your car is a HUGE influence on the direction that i am choosing to go with mine. Your car won't be the same to me without the RS setup! :hail:

I like the RS grill better. I think it's sleeker and stealthier looking but if you're into the more utilitarian, "git'r done" look leave the standard one. Afterall is said and done, it's your car and you have to look at it everyday. It's just a personal preference thing. One is not better than the other. :thumbsup:

Thanks for the kind words, guys. :)

This is something that I've been wrestling with for a long time. Jody and I were talking it over at SEMA and on a regular basis ever since. It really does boil down to personal preference as I know I can run the lights through the doors... but I also want to pull cold air from the outside areas of the grill.

I have both setups in the shop. I've put both versions on the car and just sat there in a chair looking at it. And looking at it. Then swapped it out and sat there some more. I know the grill sets the tone for the character of the car. I get the vibe that the standard front end is more business looking and the RS grill is all about being clean and more modern.

Some guys struggle with color choice, some struggle with picking the right wheels, but this damn grill has been eating at me for months. :lol:
