I vote for the carbon grill... it gives the car much-needed continuity from the hood into the bumper. If the hood was body color matched, I would say chrome, but I think as it is it makes the hood look out of place. Awesome job, by the way.

Definately the carbon grill ! The chrome sticks out too much imho...
But then I really think that the 9-3 grill in CF would look ten times as good as the 900 grill, it somehow looks so thin..The 9-3 is more massive.
Plus I definately would buy the grille too, and I think alot of other people would as well ;)

Keep up the good work !

Well, it looks like the carbon is the winner hands down.

As far as the car goes, it is coming down to the wire. I still do not have the ECU, but the car is ready to drive otherwise. Its like I am watching American Chopper or Monster Garage or something and the deadline is looming with a million things left to do. I have conceded that some things will just look good but not actually function yet, kind a show car fasion. Oh well, it will get done eventually.

Don't listen to chrome boy... stick with the carbon, it looks sweet with the bumper strip and the hood. Whoever mentioned the CF eyelids was right, those would look good with everything else. I deffinitly want a carbon grill for my 92 when I have some extra cash.. assuming you make one...

I would say Carbon fiber all the way. If you need help with a ECU, I can talk to Nordic :twisted: Ya but i know your a SQR guy plus they are comming to the US to tune your car so. Anyway, car is looking awesome, and i finaly have money now that i'm working again, so i should be sending my A pillars fairly soon, but after the big event. Hope to see you there if i make it and that fricking beast.
