A standard grille would be smarter IMO ...have you got new headlights for it to get rid of those ones?

I assume you don't like the headlights? And.....yes I have a standard grille. But with all due respect..Its my car and I like it they way it is. (knowing me I'll get bored and put the grille back on for a while) lol.

that looks stealthy all in black.i have those light too. have you put hid's in them yet? makes such a difference with the silver indicator fitted as well. not sure about the chrome grill tho might be better in black but then it might be too plain with every thing black.

Niles

yes mate. hid's are in them. I didn't really want the car to look very black. bit of chrome here and there. Happy with the look as it is now other than the eyebrows are not on. They are painted just need the weather to dry out a little so the adhesive will set in a fair time.

Thanks martin, to be honest when i got them I thought 'hmmmmm will they look good?!', put them on as a trial fit and thought they look great! Very happy with them.
As for the ebay thing, thanks very much but no, didn't go for it. sorted it locally. Thanks anyway.

Splitter looks spot on, it's a mod that should be mandatory.. Headlights are a little marmite and I think I prefer the standard ones. That said they don't look bad and it's your car so your choice..

Not for me but like i said each to their own, just think that your car is pretty smart especially with splitter and the OEM stuff looks good on it, that said i have standard lights with US spec side units and that isnt to everyones taste either lol !

got the grille ages ago. Cant remember the company's name but they are in oyster lane, Byfleet, Surrey. can remember that coz I lived a mile down the road years ago (right opposite brooklands race circuit). At that time if I remember it cost £45.

....and....don't ask me why because I'm not sure...the headlights look much better in the flesh than they do in the pictures. perhaps its me and my lowly photoger skills.

I think your right, looks like the flash went off in the 1st shot and there's quite alot of light reflected off the lenses in the 2nd shot. Neither shot shows them at their best I will give you that. I promise to take some pictures at the next meet you attend ;)
