Thumbs up KATZU Grille from AutoKits-X w/ Stillen Gen3

So after seeing Solismo and AutoKits-X's posts about these new grilles I decided that I had to have one. Got it today and installed it, as I was so excited to get a really unique, really high quality piece of equipment on my G. And AutoKits-X DID NOT DISAPPOINT.

The Katzu grille has 100% perfect fitment and looks absolutely amazing. I've also got the Stillen Gen3 intakes, and between the intakes and this grille, it all looks great.

Thanks a ton to Solismo for helping get this developed, and thanks a ton to AUTOKits-X for coming out with such a high quality product! Alex responds FAST, and is so helpful in every aspect of the transaction. They even hooked me up and painted the grille gloss black for me which, from what I can see, matches PERFECTLY to the rest of my G's OB.

**One thing I will say about the Stillen Gen3 though, it is a PITA to install this with the intakes. NOT because of the grille, but just because the intake pipes happen to be right where you need to get a socket wrench in to tighten the grille on. Maybe it's just cause I have big hands and had to bend and twist them around the pipes, but just take your time working around the Stillen Gen3 pipes**

It looks good with the filter guards though. It has that clean look.

And your logic behind this is you do know that you can have the grille painted any color you want
