I got the kit today and installed it this evening once it got cooler. It looks awesome! I'm going to go down and grab a couple of those sticky zip tie mounts for the upper center of the air dam mesh strip, would I be able to find the mounts at my local Do-It Centre or do I need to go to a specialty shop of some sort?
Anyways, here are some pics:    It's hard to see the mesh in the grill in those pics so I'll try to get a close-up tomorrow when it's light out. -------------------- Currently: 2007 Toyota Prius Touring

wow, that looks really nice devin! looks as though hyundai should have included the mesh as stock!
you can get the zip tie mounts at any hardware store, probably in the fastener section. i know that home depot has them. EDIT: hey gonzo, i received mine last night!! thanks!!! can't wait to put it on this weekend! --------------------  |

Thanks Devin!! esp for the pics! Definitely looks good on black  Those should be fairly easy to come by. My sticky has popped off a few times and I've decided to be okay with that. I'll try to locate something to send to anyone else getting an 04-05 kit. ---- I have received payments from LJWcrash and Tirolerpeter and I'll get those shipped Wednesday. -------------------- A proud member of the club.

Thanks! I'll hit the Do-It Center first thing this morning and pick up a couple of the fasteners. QUOTE (gonzo777 @ Aug 16 2005, 06:20 AM) Thanks Devin!! esp for the pics!

I'll try to locate something to send to anyone else getting an 04-05 kit. Thank you for making the kit and coordinating everything! It was a very easy installation, especially with the instructions from the DIY. Glad you talked me into the black plastic instead of the aluminum, I think on the black GT it looks better. Probably on the GLS with the chrome pieces the aluminum would pretty good though. I'm just going to get a couple stickies for piece of mind, if they pop off I might glue them back on though - would that be a wise thing to do? -------------------- Currently: 2007 Toyota Prius Touring

or you could drill a hole and use a zip tie .
on the 02's theres tons of holes for zip ties. -------------------- Oh no, I'm so sorry... the correct answer is The Moops.

QUOTE (Cite 3 @ Aug 16 2005, 09:06 AM) or you could drill a hole and use a zip tie . on the 02's theres tons of holes for zip ties. There are two bars on the 05 that I could attach it to but the top half of the mesh would be bent backwards toward it and I want it to be up front. I'm not too hot on drilling holes, but compared to glue it may be the way to go. Anyways, that's later on down the road. Right now I'm going to try out the sticky zip tie mounts and see how they do. Thanks for the suggestion, Cite. -------------------- Currently: 2007 Toyota Prius Touring

 Okay... we're up to 11 orders. I've received payment on 6 of those and I know a few Money Orders are on their way, so all is going well there. The 04-05 kits are the most time consuming, and also what I have the most orders for so I know what I'll be doing tonight!

Gonzo,
I should have the payment for you tomorrow. Man it takes time using the bank account! Are you sending dark ties for people with dark cars? -------------------- 2017 Santa Fe Sport SE 2.4L AWD (mine)

Are you sending dark ties for people with dark cars? 01-03 GLS is where the real concern for color comes in. I'm mostly sending out black zip-ties. -------------------- A proud member of the club.
