Okay, so I've finally had some money to buy a couple of things... and due to my standard grill 'falling in' I decided to get a badgeless one of ebay.. its a FK automotive one.. and I cant seem to make it fit, when its comfortable, its sloping in at the front, its not all aligned with the front of the car like it was on the standard one...

Is there anyone who could help me outt??

Thankks..

Yeah is quite a distance, do you know what I can do to make it fit?

I was thinking putting something behind it to stop it from falling back...

do you have access to anything like spyclips or tiger seal? it sounds a biut dodgy but if you push it inplace with spy clip the put some tiger sea on the rear it should hold it and wont show ,looking a mess or tiger seal it and use one of those plastic clamp things

Finally got it fitted.. I needed to put something to stop the grill from falling in (which was why i brought a new one) suprised same problem was with this one.. I used the flat lego brick things and they work a treat... good ol UHU glue :) Hopefully it will stay where it is once Ive been driving :p Sorry, quite a dark photo.
