    Cheers guys, a wrecked the R badge with to much super glue so its a wee bit white at bits lol

    A had to chop ¼" off top and bottom of the slash with the dremel to get it to fit

    Very nice work Fraz, the grille looks great with the chrome out edge, you should've got a blue badge to add a bit of colour though imo

    when i fitted my mesh grille i moved the cable loom down and drilled a hole in each side of the splitters long centre slot, fitted two repair washers to spread the load and it worked a treat. i have black mesh on the centre hole of the splitter so you cant see the horns atall. looks good and took less than 20min to do

    remmember and tilt the horns back a little to stop bug ingestion. its been pissing down up here for a week or so now and no water damage after 80miles per day for the last 4month
