I have no idea regarding KIA fitment. Probably not, because this grill snaps on directly to our headlight housings.

i guess it might work if your car share same headlights as protege.

3.russian
4.clappy
5.lowpro98
6.zshakespeare
7.labikesrcool??? not sure, please let me know.

Now I like this list much better. Hopefully everyone will get some cash for X-Mas, Hanukah, or what not, and we will get this thing on.
Guys, let me know what is the better method of payment for you, PayPal or money order. I know money order is cheap, but PayPal will charge me fees. So if someone transfers me $80, PayPal will take about $5 from that. Also, my bank will charge me $30 for international transfer, so please add accordignly to the personal total ($30/7 people=apx $4). Thanks guys.

I have a question. How much is it gonna cost me to paint this so it matches my car's color?

[K Dawg ONE]

I know it would cost about $75CDN to get painted here...

[turbonium959]

Yeah, thats sounds about right. For about $50, you can get it painted in a shop. Or if you know what you are doing (must have painting experience), and have paitence, you can do it yourself. I assume that the grills will come primed and ready to paint. Still, look over the surface and correct any informalities, use very fine sandpaper. Apply more primer if needed. Then go to NAPA, give them your car's color code, and tell them you need a spray can of that color for plastic applications. Believe it or not, its two different types of paint for bumpers/plastic and metal body parts. A spray can will cost you less then $10. I did that before when I painted the center piece on the grill the same color as the car. Well, way off-topic now. I will shut the hell up.

Lets make the list bigger. Muahahahaha!!!

So, after Christmas we'll have list of all people who want to get this and then we'll calculate and send you money. Let's say, as soon as we'll have all people we need you can post the price and I'll send money right away.
About painting - actually that was weird , but original grill doesn't have a clearcoat. I painted mine with a spray paint and it still looks good after 4 month. And that is less then 10$. With a new one I'm gonna wait till I'll get a body kit and paint all together.

[zshakespeare]

[labikesrcool]

i'm in i sent you a pm it should be there just tell me where to send the money

[zshakespeare]

Is the grille just for the top part where the grille is, or the bottom part also? ala russians foglights howto.

[russian]

The grill we are getting is only top part. The bottom part is a bumper I guess, even if it has mash on it
Basicly the stock grille on our cars consists of 3 parts. Body colour painted grill, plastic mesh with mazda emblem and a black thing that goes over your radiator and attached to your frame with 3 plastic screws. There's also 4 of those connectors ( damn, my English sucks) that hold grille on headlights. I'm not sure how is that grille gonna be supplied, but I'll need those connectors if grille will come without them. You guys can use your stock ones, just don't brake them when you gonna take them out. Mine was broken and now I have none.

[zshakespeare]

Well I hope it comes with the connectors too, because today when I was making my horn not sound like I was driving a clown car, I broke one of them because you have to take out the damned grille just to get the headlight off to get at the horn. I didn't think the grille would be one large piece, i figured you could take the mazda badge off.
