Another idea was to carbon or mat wrap the glass on the front, possibly debage ? hmm ideas..

EDIT! - how did you modify the grill ?

Aqib · 19th August 2012, 00:32

That looks good!

stackerman · 19th August 2012, 08:45

cdti, i opened up the grill ( not as hard as it looks) the glass is clear there are two removable plastic peices that are tinted. I sprayed the rear silver bit with gloss blqack fromm the range £2.99 for holts on offer so cheap mod. the badge comes off easy.

Glad someone has finally taken up the challenge of doing this, as I thought about doing it months ago, myself (albeit keeping the "H" bit silver).

Looks great, imo and will certainly stand out from the cyclops/sports grille crowd!

Any more pics of it a bit lower down, kinda at a 45 degree angle from the front corners?

Did you use plastic primer first or just spray the black straight on?

Might start looking out for a cheap used perspex item now...

stevenedgar · 19th August 2012, 13:54

good job

paulo7 · 19th August 2012, 15:20

Cool nice mod!! You'll have to do a how to thread now

How much did your Jap Plates cost? Are they fully legal and do they cover the holes from the previous plates?
