How was the paint match?? Did it require any blending into the fenders or hood??

Nice lower grill insert you have there sir !! Looks good, I wasn't aware there were a bunch of people doing this front end conversion. I did it to the back of our #05 car, but left the front alone with the Legend splitter installed and the A47 Brake duct setup.

I just got my lower insert a few days ago, fits nice and completes the bottom IMO.. wish i didn't have to use a front license plate!

it is really hard to get the paint on fiberglass and metal to match. its pretty close. didnt do any blending. you have to be lookin pretty hard to see that they dont match perfectly. later on i may get it repainted and blended.

Very nice!

The CS front / rear clips are among my favorites for the S197's.
