Go to Halfords and buy stainless mesh for £30
or alloy even cheaper.
Remove mesh from your grills and use as templates to cut new ones.
Fit new and thats it.
hope this helps

See what you think of this......



Cost £10 for the mesh, and £10 for the paint, jobs a good 'un.

I'd be inclined to edit that post for the number plate, and if the car ISN'T a prodrive edition, watch out for flack

Thumbs up

Pic edited, cheers Alcazar

Dead easy to do. Get some mesh from Halfords or the like, and cut to shape. If required, you can paint it, I used Hammerite Smooth, 2 coats.

If you want a logo, locate one on the net, print to the right size, and cut out a stencil or draw straight on to the mesh, then paint again with Hammerite Smooth. I'm doing an STi one at the moment for my intercooler.

I attached mine with cable ties to the existing slats, et voila !

My car has just about all the Prodrive kit bar the PPP, which is where you get the official badge. I figured I put enough money their way to justify making my own. I don't make these for anyone else, and I don't make any money from it in any way, its the way I want my car to look.

I did me own driving light covers too, which were equally cheap and easy.

Hope this helps, and glad you like my efforts.

ps. I have no issue with mods editing or deleting my pic or comments if they are contrary to any copyright guidelines.
