Knowledge about my grill needed - DE5IRED - 19:th-Mar-2015 Hey guys I've recently been away and just come back so back to making some changes With the car. I made a post not to long ago asking people's thoughts of what method to take to Get my rear griffin black I've decided to book it in to a body shop as I wanted the easiest Stress free option and I'm also getting them to do a couple of bits. First things first I'm getting them to do the rear griffin gloss black and also getting them to colour match the grey plastic on the rear bumper. I was originally going to get a colour matched front grill off ebay but realised it's the same grill I already have so thought it would be best to just get it sprayed whilst having the other bits and pieces done. I explained to the guy I want the grill colour matched with the car but I want the griffin on the grill sprayed gloss black and possibly the background of the griffin white like the car He said that would be no problem but it depends if the griffin comes off the front grill I just wondered if anybody knew if it dose come lose off the grill I've tried to slightly prize it forward and it seems like it wants to just wanted to know if anyone could confirm. Also dose anyone know how easy it Is to remove the front grill as he reckons it will be more in labour if they have to take the front bumper off to get the grill off I thought it was just a case of opening the bonnet and unscrewing it maybe I'm wrong tho. Apologies for the essay Gaz Knowledge about my grill needed - Rusty2009 - 19:th-Mar-2015 1. It's a front bumper off job mate and then time getting the grill out without braking any of the clips. 2. Yes it comes away and behind the griffin is a blanking plate which i think is just clipped in (this Hides the Opel part) Knowledge about my grill needed - DE5IRED - 19:th-Mar-2015 Cheers mate both answers in one comment :thumbsup: lol Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Knowledge about my grill needed - tucpal - 19:th-Mar-2015 as above removing the front grill is a pain in the but and it is very easy to brake a few clips but the griffin will come off easy a bit of a twist the backing plate will pop off a good sprayer will have no problem painting the grill on the car |
