Ducktail Grill Fitment

Hello All,

I recently installed an EB Motorsport fibreglass ducktail.

My polished 5 bar grill is from Rennspeed.

The ends of the grill rest approx. 0.5-1.0" above the curvature of the ducktail.

Has anyone had to modify their grill to better fit the curvature of the ducktail?

Has anyone had great success with a polished grill out of the box? If so, please let me know the vendor.

I like the look of the Rennspeed product but it doesn't appear to properly follow the curvature of the ducktail.

Thanks for your help.

I had to trim my plastic (SC) grill to fit the ducktail I put on. Not sure what make tail it is. Bought it used and there's no makings on it. Had to round the corners a little.

Not all ducktail molds are the same.

My stock plastic grill was too large for the opening.
