Why no response on the cf side gills? I see myself and others ask and nothing back... it's not a big deal if you don't have them or you chose not to make them but an update of any kind would be nice.

Still in the works...the first prototypes we received weren't up to our standards. As soon as we are happy with the results I'll post them up

Should the cosmetic kit be installed first before I XPEL the car? I assume the reflectors, gills, and front grills should be installed first.

All my parts were installed after the car was wrapped with XPEL. They take those parts off when wrapping, so I had them leave all parts off post wrap, so I could bring the iND parts to pop on.

What about the front reflectors? I plan on wrapping the front clip, a-pillars, mirror caps and rear quarter panels.

The reflectors are cutout, so you can take out and pop in before or after. I might have a picture of said cutouts. Let me check.

Edit: The pictures are pretty compressed and you can't really see the cutouts, but those areas are definitely cut out as I did mine after the XPEL was installed.

I think he wants to know if you stuck the side grills on the film.

Do anybody else's M2 logos on the IND painted side gills no longer fit sub-flush with horizontal slat and how stick out a little bit?

Since we use OE cores everything should fit just like factory. I recommend sending an email to support@ind-distribution.com so we can get a new set sent over.

I had sent an email out on Friday, still waiting to hear back. Here are some pictures of the side emblem vs. stock (both the driver and passenger side IND emblems have the same issue with the M2 label not sitting flush). I can push on it and the foam tape compresses and it goes down, but it just pops back out again. The stock one is solid.

I assume I could try and disassemble the M2 logo and track down a thinner adhesive, but I don't want it to fall apart on the road and lose the logo if I choose wrong...

Hmmm, won't be happy if mine turn up like that...I guess they disassemble them to spray up and then rebuild and reapply a new piece of double sided tape to the logo - which in your pics looks like it's too thick. I'm sure the chaps will sort you out.

My M2 badges are flush and don't move. I wonder if the push out from the back side so you can clean of the adhesive and re-apply.

Unfortunately you can't push them out from the back (no hole behind the M2 logo area).
