Are they difficult to fit or is it just pop the originals out and put the new ones in? Anybody have a picture of them fitted?  :party:

Takes 10 seconds! Uncrew the old ones (1 screw), and then slide the new ones into place and do the screw again!

does anyone know if its possible to get the honeycomb grills but where they are completely cut out. I have seen the old type which has a section removed but im looking for a grill with all the honeycombs cut out

You have to custom make them and tbh they look pretty rubish because you can see the bumper behind them.

As already said they are very easy to fit. If you check out my build thread you'll see how they looked when i had them on my car. I had a bit of colour coding done on them to give a slightly different look. I'll post a pic when i get home as i'm using my phone just now.
