I was going to get a JOM one until I found a genuine one.

Well I've just been out and finished sanding the filler and it is looking good. Nice and smooth. :drool: :drool: :drool: Will get some primer and satin black 2moro and I'm going to pop to VW as well to hopefully get the R32 mesh grille that I need.

Finally an update on this!!  :grin: :grin:









I started by removing the central slat on the right side of the grill. I tried the honeycomb on it as normal but it just didn't look right. I felt removing it looked much neater. I've trimmed the honeycomb to the shape of the central badge and the edge. All I need to do now is work out how I'm going to attach it to the grill. I'm thinking about using a soldering iron and melting the to separate parts together. Or might just do it as simple as cable ties.

More to come soon.....  :smug: :smug:

Thinking of using some black tiger seal to fix the honeycomb at the moment.
