Default What grill is this? Mine is different but I wanted this one.

When I was searching for a grill, I was shown this one as an example of what the A! grill looks like, then next picture is what mine looks like. What kind of grill is the first one? I am kinda pissed off that I did not get what I expected.

The pic on top is SeanG's old '97 1.8T with the A! grill. My A! grill looks just like his.

Default What can I do, is there two models, did I get a counterfeit? (more)

I am fairly upset about this. My grill does not look nearly as good as the one of seans's car. I guess it is my fault if they have a couple models of grills, but I was only aware of one. Does Avantgarde have a US # I can call, or should I call CEC Wheels. This was a fairly expensive cosmetic upgrade, and I would like to get the good one. Another note: my grill had the A! badge, but it had a really unprofessional rectangular black plastic piece behind it, it was larger than the badge and looked horrible, anyone elses come like this? Thx...

Default I had the same badge. Remember that A! doesn't make their own grills. The one that you like....

is made by Kamei. Maybe A! found a new supplier and your grill is their current product.
