[QUOTE="Vettenut, post: 328024, member: 7655"] Funny you should ask ...I ordered my set from the radiator grill store the minute I pulled into the driveway from the dealer on delivery day Yea the 5 kms that I drove home .... I could already see a few dings in the front rads.... I ordered the complete set from RGS including the side vent grills ...the front grills work well for 1 of 2 reasons or both 1 . the protection grills offer much less of an opportunity for debris to hit the rads ... 2. the protection grills are black with a fine honeycomb pattern ... and they blackout the rads behind them and you really cant see the rads As for the side vents ... try as I might I could not get them in :Banghead: so I stopped trying in fear of damaging my car . However 6500 kms later the drivers side vent is pretty much a black hole not much visible there ... but I try to clean it whenever i wash the car . The passenger side rad which is clearly visible has not 1 blemish .. go figure I would 100% recommend front rad protection grills left right and center .... side grills ....take it or leave it ....if you can get them in ;) [/QUOTE]
