Polished Grille:






***Also not the Stainless Steel B-Pillars***

Flat Black:











Raw Billet Grilles are now available factory-direct from GTG via their eBay store, "UTV Products" at the following links:

Polished Billet Grille - $289 USD + Shipping.
Flat Black Billet Grille - $289 USD + Shipping.

Group Buy Opportunity: $269/each + shipping - must have (5) Veloster Turbo Billet Grilles paid for in full to get the $20 discount on the grille. Please let me know if you'd be interested in purchasing. We'll be offering the upgrades / options through Profusion Racing: tow hooks, plate brackets, Turbo logos, GDi logos, etc. Payment needs to be made to Profusion Racing; contact me directly for details: [email protected].

And for the sake of complete transparency, our cost is $245/each on the grilles. $269-$245 = $24 (less than 10%), and that does not include the costs of building the first one from scratch, as well as purchasing the OEM grille to do that. If you buy direct from the manufacturer, we obviously get nothing. So at a minimum, if doing that, please notate that you were directed their from the Profusion Racing Veloster Turbo Forums guys! :D Maybe that will help at some juncture in the future w/developing new parts later; who knows. We hope to be able to make up our initial investments along the way by selling the upgrades/options/badges and the COMPLETED grille sets (where we mount them in an OEM grille for the novice/amateur end-user).

Thanks!

Is the flat black painted or powder coated?
Powder coated.

The raw grille can be purchased right now direct from the manufacturer, or through us. We have one OEM grille surround remaining in stock & if we get the group buy going, we will of course order more from "H". We can definitely offer the full kit right now for those interested in doing that, however, it will be lacking the upgrade options (tow hook, plate mount, badging) until we can complete those; actively working to secure/finalize those for everyone now.

Ever look at anodizing?
Not as strong a finish as powdercoating. For interior or engine-compartment parts it would be sufficient, but for something exterior, I'd think it would get marred too easily.

I'm feeling the same way. I'd rather keep my original grill stock.

MiDiablo: Don't the stock grille surrounds come unpainted? How would we get it painted to match our color? hmm..

Yes, they come in the OEM black/plastic. That would be up to the end-user to handle. You can get them painted at a body shop, you could get them wrapped in a vinyl of your choice; I saw someone kicking the idea around for a CF wrap of the surround, which I would entertain on mine personally. You could plasti-dip them any color of your choice. Or you could leave them in the flat black. Unfortunately, we have no desire (at this time) to try and safely/securely ship any painted exterior parts.

Also, every factory color has slight color shade variance, and nothing is worse than to have a part that is the wrong color next to the correct color. Sticks out like a sore thumb...
That's precisely my concern with trying to have it painted to match my Elite White VT. Still, it sounds like a good idea not to destroy the original, matching piece. Vinyl-Wrap could work, but I'm not sold on the Di-Noc CF look. I could get a grille surround fabricated out of real CF to match, that might be a cool look.

Any reputable paint shop should be able to color match the paint to your exact car. Profusion does not have that luxury, thus the lack of interest at this time.
A real CF surround would be amazing, but price is probably going to make it not cost efficient.

Prices do not include grille surround. Grille surround is an additional cost.


Time between payment and shipping will depend on demand of product. If only 5 are purchased, then time frame should be about a week. If 50 are purchased, it will be considerably longer.
