Carefully look at how the hood, upper radiator mount, and the cavity in front of the radiator are setup. You will notice that it is pretty much sealed, by design, to channel maximum airflow thru the radiator. So yes, you did waste your money on bling.
To add to this, the Greddy front strut bar was ill-concieved as well. The mounting plates won't fit flush because of the design of the tC's upper strut mounts (towers). Greddy ingeniously provides you with 1/2" spacers to overcome this. Problem for Greddy is that this also overcomes the length of the upper strut attachment bolts. 2 threads on a nut are definately not safe on a suspension!!!! I had to modify it to work correctly.
Way to go Greddy!!! I aso find their Greddy Ultimate E-Manage not well-engineered. 3 strikes, you're out of here!!!Take my advice and stay away from over-priced brand names that offer poorly designed products.
