Offline | I'd be going into neurotic meltdown if I let kids wash my car  There are some kids in our unit complex that come around every couple of weeks asking if I want my car washed for $10. I feel like such a slack bugger when I say no.  Jan 06 MCS Checkmate |

Offline | Micky, it's pretty easy to do if you have Andrew there. He's a good worker, and as a supervisor I reckon I'm not too bad either. As a supervisor Andrew is also quite good, but as a worker, I suck! I think a new grille is about $140, that includes upper and lower sections. You don't appear to be able to buy the surrounds separately though, you need to get the whole grille, and they come unpainted too. Therefore it would be easier for you to do a swap like we did today. The older style grilles, like ours, are now discontinued parts so make sure you hold on to the old bits for the trainspotters! Oh, it took about 90mins to complete. And, if anyone needs a DS upper grille, without the chrome surround let me know. |
