Looks very nice!
Regarding the repeat for second grill bit though, why didn't you just put your hand through the hole where the first grill was!? Last edited by teaston; 03-07-2015 at 03:48 PM.. |

So all of the bottom tabs snapped off?
I've snapped one off my black grills, i've bought some poly cement http://www.amazon.co.uk/Humbrol-28ml...s=Plastic+glue which should stick it permanently as it actually melts the plastic a little which effectively welds it together! |

Car looks good and at least you're not cluttering up the garage.

That looks very similar to mine except without the front splitter
Is yours an xdrive? The rear seems to sit a bit higher than mine after the ACS springs? Also what spacers did you use and where did you get them? I've been considering some ever since the ACS springs went on as it looks a little over arched...... I'm going to wait until I take off my winters though, the spray from those is terrible as it is, with spacers the car would simply never look clean again Ade |
