my autocorrect didn't let me say clearly where I got the grille. Igor. He commented on top. Once again thanks for your help.

This looks better than the photo in the Opening Post.

Painting the lower lip black makes it look meaner again...

Eager to see your before and after. I have s nebula grey and I cannot decide if I want to black out the mid bumper. It is an easy modification with vinyl. If I see a nebula grey with the fsport grills and mid bumper in black that might help me decide.

IMHO what you have above looks great. Go both the same but don't mix upper and lower just looks half A&&ed

How difficult was the top grille removal? Can you just remove the grille surround/insert or you need to remove the entire bumper to change out the top grille? Any info. you can provide would be real helpful...thx!

you do not need to take the bumper off. There are just so many clips you have to be careful not to break them.



This is how it ended
