Will do. My car already has eBay matte black single slat grills which look good, but I'm going for a gloss setup (gloss wheels, gloss grills, etc) to match the carbon fiber so that's why I'm making the change

I read a post about them not being a perfect fit, did you have any problems with fitment during the install process?

They were installed by the previous owner. They seem to work just fine. They look good to me.

I purchased gloss black double slat grilled last year, quality was OEM as was the fit. 6 months on they are still looking as good as new.

It's a hit or miss when it comes to Ebay. You can have 10 guys buy the same grill from the same vendor and out of the 10 7 will say its perfect while the other 3 will say it doesn't fit right.

I guess shipping takes awhile? I ordered this on the 27th and its still somewhere overseas whereas i ordered the carbon skirt extensions and they got here in like 5 days? Keep us posted on how fitment was
