why? It protects the radiator and covers up the ugly-ness.

it's there to add structural support for that big gap. remove it and things start sagging. Besides, it's hardly noticeable and looks much better than the AP2's criss cross design.

I purchased my AP1 with the top portion of the grill removed.. didnt see much of a difference in the structural support, but I think it looks better than the regular 2-row plastic grill.. you can't tell in the pic anyway, but heres how it looked when the car was stock with an OEM front lip.

It actually looks pretty good when you have a HUGE intercooler behind the grill... But with nothing behind it, it doesn't look good.



BTW - Your car looks GREAT!!
