any other time of the year, yes this is a good deal.

but right now, concept1 has them on sale for $95 Canadian ($69 USD) unpainted. So throw on $75 for paint, and you will have it for about $20-30 cheaper than from the vortex special, and you wont have to wait 2-3 weeks.

Simon where did you get that price...?
I phoned and was talking to Ken he said $135

**Mr. Burns** · 10-23-2003, 12:05 PM

not to mention the cost of paint

**TDi_Steve** · 10-23-2003, 01:00 PM

Simon IS correct they are on for $95
phoned Ken back
not a bad price.

**Simon** · 10-23-2003, 02:05 PM

yah its not only not a bad price, its a damn good one too!

so think of it this way. if you were to buy from vortex, thats $110+15 shipping(canada)+$10duty(crossing the border0 = $135 USD = $175 Canadian

Through C1 its $95 *1.07 = $101.50 with tax. I'm sure you can find some place to paint if for $73.50 and it'll be even.

I'd go through C1 just because you can buy it right now, and not have to wait 2 weeks for shipping. And if there is a paint issue, it will be local, rather than having to send it back.

This is all just my opinion, feel free to throw it out.

Yes might as well keep it Local

Mike, having a black grille on yer car would be awesome. I tihnk I might get a badgless grille and not paint it. Do these grilles have notch fillers and you have to paint those fillers right?

**liquid** · 10-23-2003, 03:59 PM

NICE!! I've been wanting that grill for a while... but didn't have the $$$ if it's that cheap I might have to jump on it :thumbsup:

**Canadian Turbo** · 10-23-2003, 04:12 PM

I will probably be picking up a grill for my Jetta!

i agree, but with my front bumper I think i kind of need the grille i have, Ive never really thought that rs4 bumpers looked good with stock, or even stock-like badgeless grills. I am however going to paint my mirrors black (if they ever freakin get here)

EDIT: I think your car would look kickass with a black badgeless grille, but I think that painting it black would look better than unpainted (its the little details that make a nice car truly stand out)
