Ok, so I've been a bit lazy today :doh:, up to now I've fitted the new grill to the bumper

I'm really pleased with how its came out, looking forward to getting the bumper back on tomorrow.

I've also taken the TX Autosport FMIC off, ready for my to fit the toyosport cooler tomorrow, there's quite a size difference:

Grill looks sweet mate :) Will check it out at Inters' :)

Hope you get on well with this cooler. The TX does a brilliant job to be fair, but bigger is better as they say and high boost stage 2 LCR's need a bit more IMO.

The grill looks brilliant mate. As if it was factory made. Hats off :)

Where will the magnetic number plate sit? Pretty much in its original position, or actually on the honeycombe bit?

James :)

Cheers for the comments :D

The grill looks good mate :D how much did it cost to make ?

Just the price of two grills, paint, glue and the fibre glass for the back. I'll stick the price of the grills up tomorrow

Exactly where it sits OEM, I've got magnets mounted to the back of the solid piece of the grill, I'll stick a pic up once its all back together

Looking good mate
How long does it take to get the bumper off ruffly
As my mate done it for me last time

Time wise I couldn't tell you, I just crack on when working. If it's been off before though it shouldn't be as much of a PITA as it is the first time, really simple to do aswell once your used to getting it on and off.

Fancy getting the rods done for peace of mind, But monies tight at the minute with the missus in Uni so I'll just have to wait and see. Fingers crossed though later in the year it'll be getting done.
