...to my bumper n grill.
I fibre glassed some mesh in the holes in the bumper n grill and painted the triangle bit on the grill. Im not 100% sure about what ive done to the triangle bit on the grill, i might spray the white mesh silver or black.
Here are some pics.

Yes, that is what i mean Mine to faded and I thought of touching it up, but was afraid of making a hash of it, so i never did it. Would have loked like tippex But I'm Sure you would do a good job of it though. _________________ x2 33 16v

I did this 2.5 years ago, by the looks of the file date. I think that I did an experiment along the lines of plastic primer on one mirror, and corrosion primer on the other. The paint is coming off one but not the other, so get your preparation right!  _________________ "Now, all that is left to do ... is wait that something else brokens, to fix up again!" |

I think it looks stunning myself. Very trackday and purposeful. Makes me want to get my own Zender kit on. I was thinking of removing the bars from the grill and just meshing it but now I'll have to rethink. I like the body coloured grill with the contrast triangle. _________________ The pop star formerly known as Eddie W |

Thanks Eddie.
I was thinking about removing the bars aswell but at the time i thought it was too much work and i didnt have the right colour red to respray it. n i think it looks good as it is  _________________
