Front Grill - J4M13UK - 28:th-Oct-2016

Hi Guys,

Just wanted some advice, I am thinking on removing the front grille, wrapping it with carbon wrap and then painting the griffin white same colour as the car. I have tried to look on Google Images to see if theres anything like it but i cant find any. What do people think? will it look ok ?

I'd wrap it in situ as you need to remove the whole.bumper otherwise... sounds interesting and I've seen a white Griffin badge on a black grill somewhere before I'm sure.

Yeah I have seen them without the badge. I want to keep the badge but I cannot make my mind up whether to have it white, black or leave it chrome. I will be doing it over the next couple of weeks so I will post come picks up.

Also @J1ODYA - you would say it is easier to wrap it without taking the bumper off?

Yeah unless you have the confidence and time to.remove it, I've seen good jobs done in situ

I will have to have a look at then, I thought it would be easier taking bumper off. If I can get away with leaving it on then that would be better.

What you think ? I wrapped it without removing the grill itself.

Cheers, I am happy with it, I like my cars to look a little different but not over the top
