Just thought I would post my grill after I wrapped it. Decided to just leave it on the car but to remove the badge as was pretty easy with a bit patience and a hair dryer. Happy with the results and gone is the chrome!

Wouldn't mind doing something with the headlights but to either buy a sri set or unbond and spray inside will be a nightmare. Has anyone tinted theirs?

Jordan has found some after market-ones that are RHD at last
check his progress thread

http://www.vxoc.org.uk/forum/Thread-Prog...dan-Naylor

and i have retro fitted projectors

http://www.vxoc.org.uk/forum/Thread-Proj...a-j-5-door

as for tinting they do look good but the light out put
will be reduced you can use the flyeye film
but it looks odd with the little holes

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/50cm-x-106cm-H...3a81c6ff79

the SRI light that are dark inside do look better than the silver
so this may be a cheaper option
