12sechatch Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Looks like I can get them through a vendor on here for $46.14. You know the part # for the emblem just to be sure? Dealer wont look it up without a VIN number he says. call a different dealer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Catalyst. Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 call a different dealer.Agreed. I'm partial to Chaplin's (subarugenuineparts.com). Jamie there is awesome - I know 12sechatch will agree. My local Subaru dealership sucks so all my little OEM replacements come from Chaplin's. My spec.B [#163] Project Thread with Pictures Get CryoTuned!

nospmoht04 Posted April 3, 2013 Author Share Posted April 3, 2013 Alright cool sounds good. Yeah most of the dealers around here have little patience it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydoobie Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 subarupartsdepot.com has been the cheapest place for OEM parts IME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nospmoht04 Posted April 3, 2013 Author Share Posted April 3, 2013 Subarupartsdepot.com has it for $44.29 so I'll go with that. Catalyst, I'll just pick it up so I can send you the whole thing done and can get some good pictures with it completed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Catalyst. Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Sounds good and I'll pay whatever the emblem cost shipped and difference for additional materials etc. Looking forward to seeing the finished goods My spec.B [#163] Project Thread with Pictures Get CryoTuned!

rob-2 Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 It possible to get you my grill and have you do the original one you made? Maybe you could mount my emblem from the oem grill on the new mesh? Can ship to you and provide a FedEx pre-paid fedex label. Do you want me to PM you to get this started? Hope you're still making these! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nospmoht04 Posted April 4, 2013 Author Share Posted April 4, 2013 That sounds good and I can do that no problem, there will be a wait though. There is quite the list going at this point and it's only fair to make them in order. I'll add you and get in contact as soon as possible. Feel free to contact me for an update on when I'll make it to yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nospmoht04 Posted April 7, 2013 Author Share Posted April 7, 2013 First S402 style grill will be done tomorrow. I just finished everything but the primer, a bit more sanding, and paint. After work tomorrow, where I've been 30 of the last 32 days and counting, I'll get it painted and have pics up not long after. Other than that it'll just be a wait on the emblem that I ordered on Wednesday. I'm honestly surprised at how well it came out all things considered from the very start when I couldn't get a good source for the honeycomb material. The learning curve will start to steady out and I'll get going on more asap. I'll keep you all posted. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screamin Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 (edited) I'm so excited to see it I believe you are going to be a very popular, and busy, person very soon. Hopefully you make at least a decent profit from all your hard work and troubles. Edited April 7, 2013 by Screamin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Catalyst. Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 It's good to be first. I'm looking forward to the end results - I know his attention to detail and craftsmanship are worth the wait from seeing earlier projects. My spec.B [#163] Project Thread with Pictures Get CryoTuned!

nospmoht04 Posted April 8, 2013 Author Share Posted April 8, 2013 Unfortunately I don't have any pictures yet. I had it on my car looking at it from different angles before I painted it and noticed a few things that need to be changed. It's just part of the whole deal being a new project, figuring out what works and doesn't work. I want to make sure it's exactly right rather than throwing something out there just to get it done. I'll update soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
