PayPal says mine shipped out today, I'm excited! Hopefully no fitment issues, I'm planning on just taking a dremel to open up some more of the honeycombs.

You'll be golden.

One of my sponsored cars just installed the new rev on his aftermarket grill too (I think it's roush) :headbang:

:thumbsup:



He was doing a lot of work to his front bumper at the time of the pic

^ Missed a clip on that grill install, bummer.

Just got my replacement big mouth today. Its far bigger (very obvious to the naked eye) than the one I was originally sent and has "rev 2" molded onto it. I certainly wish there wasn't an error shipping me the wrong one the first time. I'm not really sure how that was even possible after comparing the 2, but accidents happen. That was 5 hours of frustration, a broken clip to my bumper cover, and unnecessary grinding to my current grill (to get the smaller one to fit) that shouldn't have occurred.

If you buy one, make sure it says "rev 2" on it, don't just trust you got the right one and go through what I did.

We just got hit by a hurricane and our webstore crashed so a lot of things went sideways a couple weeks back. Sorry for the mix up :doh:

No sweat, all good now. :headbang:

Got my new one today, thank you! It is definitely bigger and gloss as opposed to matte finish, I love it.

Well I am very confused. The Rev2 protrudes out farther than my first one. How in the hell does that provide more clearance to the backside of the grille? Something is amiss.

Dan, please call me ASAP, because this has time-sensitive issues for me!

Comparing the old to the new it looks to me the new one will slide onto the air box snout further therefore creating more space between it and the grill. I have not tried to install it though so I am only guessing.

I had no issues installing the newly revised big mouth. I also chopped away at the grill to fit the original one though.

I ordered mine and received it around 20 July but I haven't installed it yet. Will I have fitment issues? Do I need to send it back for a revised version?

Wow!

I just want to comment on Velossa Tech Design's excellent customer service and how great it is to have a company that offers such great innovative products!

Now I just have to build up the nerve to carve out some of the grill hexes :)

Seriously good customer service. My order was hung up in USPS's system and I didn't even realize it until Dan emailed me first to tell me it was stuck and he's going to look into it :thumbsup:

Maybe a stupid question, will it let in water or debris when driving in heavy rain?
