Great! Looks fab! How easy is it to fit the orginal grille to the aerokit bumper? Do they just fit straight on or did it take some adjustment to get your S grille on the aero kit bumper?

Were you able to paint the middle grille (i.e. top of the bumper) without removing the bumper?

No I had the aero grill fitted and the sprayed the original OEM grill off of the car. Then fitted that back on.

Top grill is obviously a straight swap.

The lower bit requires "bodging" and alterations to the grill (i.e., removing of tabs that slot into standard bumper).

its probably a 2/5 difficulty if that.

looks good bud

ps. how much for the aero grille?

Damo · #23 (**permalink**) May 30th, 2007, 09:15 PM

Not selling it just yet in case I need to replace it. Will see

TBH I thought they were only about £30 from the dealer.

I like it mate...won't look good on every car but it really does on yours. I'll have a closer look next time I see it in Urmston!

sweet looking car! Where did you get the shorter number plate mount from?

Pobsey · #28 (**permalink**) May 31st, 2007, 06:09 PM

You have to make the plate holder yourself, measure the plate and then cut a section out of the plate holder so the plate fits tight in the holder and glue together, fit to car and job done, word of warning if your plate is 6 or less digits your old number plate holder screws will be seen on the bumper

ok thanks for that
