Finished my Aero grill install yesterday. I installed the upper grill a couple months ago but was reluctant to tackle the lower grill. Well, I finally got over my apprehension and ordered the lower part. It wasn't too difficult but did take me a few hours. I couldn't imagine doing it without a Dremel!

Thankee, sai!
Vintage gold? Or the gold metalizer?
I used to have a WRB WRX, and I dipped the wheels vintage gold. I thought it looked great!

Oh... how long did it take you on the VC gasket? That is on my list of To Dos in the not sure distant future.

The valve cover gasket was a piece of cake, maybe 20-25min from start to getting the cover off. Most of that time accounted for getting off the intercooler and associated bits.

The vintage gold is the hue I picked up. The other one was too bright IMO. What color was your WRX?
My WRX was world rally blue.
A picture is worth 1000 words, right?
Looking through the pictures reminded me that I had made a stencil and plasti-dipped this in vintage gold. lol
That combo is very popular , like a chili red / white top MINI.

Do you have a before and after on that grill work?
Finished my Aero grill install yesterday. I installed the upper grill a couple months ago but was reluctant to tackle the lower grill. Well, I finally got over my apprehension and ordered the lower part. It wasn't too difficult but did take me a few hours. I couldn't imagine doing it without a Dremel!
