The first one I got seemed off but once i got the new one it sits great and looks good. I think you just have to see it on the car like anything, pictures never seem to do things justice.

I got mine on a few days ago and it fits perfect. the corners could have maybe been a little sharper but overall def worth the price. pm me about a fuse box cover

Mine showed up today. I couldn't get it to center perfectly. Had to take a drill and oblong the holes in the grill a bit to give me more wiggle room. But for $20 it's a great piece.

And they look sick as hell. I would have went that way but $80 is tough to swallow for a front bowtie. I know it's not a cheap piece to make.

^^ It might be a while. Several of us who paid in April are waiting too. Handmade does take time.
I just installed my CF hood and trunk, so I'll be checking my mailbox lots this week lol!
