fitment issues

Had ordered a usdm authentic j's racing grill about a month back and finally had a chance to paint and put on, but it wont fit correctly. Was wondering if anyone else with authentic j's grill had same issues as well. Maybe they sent the jdm grill instead of the usdm grill. What are my opions if any?

Yes fitment is off completely. If you line up the top the bottom hangs to low and sticks out, and vice versa. contacted them but they are closed, so i contacted js racing usa and hopefully they can help out. hopefully he calls back within an hour.

yeah i know, should of done a test fit before doing the paint on it. thats what happens when laziness come into play. its my fault for not taking initiative in doing it properly first.

Yeah, most probably you got the JDM version bro. Same thing happened to me but with spoon radiator cap, i tried to fit it in, but there was an extra bit sticking out making it impossible to fit it no matter what way i try to. I contacted the company straight away and they found out they sent out the wrong one, they sent me the radiator for racing one instead of stock radiator. So my best advice is contact them asap and get this sorted out while it's still "fresh" eventhough u painted them. lol but how's it going anyway? he contacted you yet?
