Can’t read the license plate though.

Mike (93TyGuy) sent in pics of his car with Importology grille and lip installed. Mike, do you plan to paint the grille at all? Hope not. We think that flat look is outstanding! Thanks again for sharing.

We’ve shipped our Importology lips, grilles, and eyelids internationally before – Greece, Australia, Singapore.. oh and Canada. (Puerto Rico doesn’t count.) But for some reason, orders from Greece started to trickled in at the beginning of 2009. As of right now, I’m working on 4 separate orders of various items for our Greek friends.

Deeply puzzled, I popped the question to Gregory Balodimos, one of the waiting buyers. He wasn’t sure if he knew the other guys, but mentioned he is part of SubaManiacs.  So I snooped around online.  Apparently the scene is hot for the Subie owners in Greece.  I don’t know the size of SubaManiacs.  (This lazy bone didn’t want to Google Translate some of the pages).  But I gotta say the Forester owners are passionate and they truly represent!    

Google did find some 2008 WRC Greece videos.  But check out this entertaining production on Vimeo by Dimitrios Papadopoulos.  (Go directly to Vimeo. Embedding here the video turns off HD)  Turn up the volume too.  Greek Subies rock HARD!

P.S. Is that our grille at 1:49?

People have been asking what painted Forester accessories are available for purchase.  A quick inventory shows one black grille left.  As far as eyelids, we have 9 sets of white, silver, and black ready to ship.

The painted grille is $199 + shipping.

Painted eyelids are $69 + shipping.

Currently we are all out of the painted products. We are no longer doing any painted request.

Here is the instruction to install the Importology grille on your Forester. We understand most people may not need it, but since Tony had already created it, let’s publish it

Importology Grille Install Instruction

While installing the grille is highly DIY-able, putting the lip on the car is a different story.  We strongly recommend having a pro shop do it for you.  It is also recommended that painting comes afterwards.  With all that said, we gather there are highly skilled owners, who, with the help of ample 3M automotive adhesive tape (the dark grey foam tape with red lining), will do a great job fitting the lip to the bumper.

We warehouse most of products in Newcastle, WA; however, we don’t have a Forester there. Thanks to Chris, we were able to fit the lip, grille, and eyelids on his car when the shipment arrived from Taiwan.  Everything looks good!
