Ok so this took a while and im not very good on write up's as tgis is my first.
So make sure you take your time and it helps to have another person to help. This grill was bought from NEXTMOD and like Peter says be prepared this Grill is a pain and hard to put on.

So after talking with Nextmod there are 2 types of grills left shows the Speed 3 version Right the Mazda 3 one. Im sorry i forgot the measure , but the speed one is about an (inch ) longer

Ok next step bumper off i did put in too much detail as this is very easy to do clips , clips , and srews on the bottom

next fittment fitment. The grill itself will look off nothing is perfect. this where you will need a pare of extra hands , clamps work well too a point You will still need help shapeing the bumper to the grill.
Align the grill to the mid point with the grill. drill and put a screw in there as your starter point. From there i worked my way from the top Left to Right Pattern.
Use the taps as your mounting points.

This is very tricky and takes a lot of work so be warned. Take you time
after the grill is mounted reinstall the plastic part with the emblem over top the grill.
also the small splitter part from the bottom.


Im sorry this is very simple to do there realy was not much to take pictures off. The only issue is fitment and time , take your time , it takes awhile to get it right. i had to reposition the corners a few times ti get it close. in the end it looks great.

This is install is not for everyone, if u get fustrated fast , this is not for you lol .

do you mean will the stock grill fit if the gv grill was removed so it could be installed later?
