If it was too expensive parts wise what about getting it wrapped or painted ?

I'm not too sure if they do wrapping but they certainly do the work for Menzies :)

Where'd you find an extra 1 from? I know VOs special, but it's still an F56 :thumbs up:

If you're good with your hands I'd do it yourself, but it's probably easier to take the grill off, and that's a bumper off job which I'm not yet brave enough to tackle.

I'm also mildy amused that you got the external chrome pack, and already wanting to cover it up.;)

Plastidip is another option if you want to see if you like the look, which you could do without removing anything.

Didn't choose the chrome pack, car came with it.

That's cool, sorry if I sounded like a twat there.

There's a guy on northamericanmotoring that's wrapped his grill and he did it without removing it from the car, in 2 pieces which he claims you can't tell even close up. Might be worth trying before paying someone else to do it?

Mrs Nicol wishes for it to stay chrome for now. I'm working on it though :thumbs up:
