Hi,

I've been following this thread for more than a year dreaming to update my grille with the new one.... until I found inspiration on CraigB's beast mode black grille which is a cheaper option... :)

I thought I'd like to share this.
I plastidip my front grille and lowered the rego plate and these are the before and after photos.

Interesting - when I modified my grill recently and wanted the UK license plate lowered - the dealer refused to do so saying that "it would affect the airflow to the radiator and it would affect warranty"...

I cannot see how?  But I was in no position to argue.  :-(
