Re: Never will I buy FK again...
All you need to do is look at my rusty grill (which started rusting about a month after I put it on). Unfortunately its still on my car, as I lost my receipt (actually the bodyshop lost it while repaiirng my car), and Concept 1 wouldn't help me out in any way.Originally posted by Smartiepants

Re: Never will I buy FK again...
why would that be an FK problem?? We have the salt and poor weather, I would imagine lots of other mesh grilles do the same....that to me is not a build quality issue....Originally posted by uv232006 Colorado Xtreme | AEM CAI | Walker exhaust | smoked glass | -1" dropped rear | Avic D3 | 8000K HID's

Re: Never will I buy FK again...
Before my FK , I had a Kamei grill for well over a year. The thing looked brand new until the day it died in a car accident. Yes, it is an FK issue.Originally posted by AleksYuval

Re: Never will I buy FK again...
That doesn't mean that everything FK sells is shite. I paid $1300 for my FK coilovers and they rock.Last edited by Mr. Burns; 07-26-2005, 02:02 PM.

Re: Never will I buy FK again...
Well, I'm glad you hate FK over a single grille....the less you buy, the more is available for me!Originally posted by uv23
Kamei grilles are plastic, at least mine is, maybe thats why it didn't rust

Re: Never will I buy FK again...
I think Lots of people here are running FK Springs/Struts, I didn't think they were that bad, I have also heard that they were made by Koni, I'm not too sure. The way I think of it, don't take a good quality part off your car to replace it with something of lesser quality just for the aesthetic aspect.Originally posted by Mr. BurnsComment

Re: Never will I buy FK again...
Yeah, as far as I know FK shocks are made by Koni.Originally posted by TDI DUB

Re: Never will I buy FK again...
When I had mkIII jetta I had FK angle eyes and badgeless grill, lights were pain in a$$ to install and aligned but beam pattern and light output improved dramatically, I drive a lot on highway in night and got to say I loved it,
Grill fit only ok, but one time got hit with the rock on poked hole in size of loonie - that never happened to any of my stock grill on 2 other Mk III I owned.
Yes, you get what you pay for, FK stuff is ok for the price.Chris
