How did you spray the inserts? Did you remove them or tape them? I think it would of been better if you didn't spray the black insert on the bottom.

I really like the colour though.

Lol yeah they do the bumper on eBay for £150 new then the main grille from seat is £73.49 and the two fog surrounds are £52 for the pair you use the normal top grille from your car and get it sprayed.

I haven't got round to fitting mine yet still got to spray it but on book I have shows couple little extra bits needed but me and seat man couldn't find them on system so think they just swap over from old bumper.
