Fitted a mesh badgeless grille yesterday..... I'm not 100% sure if i like it... Some pics...

Took a while to get original grille out but finally

And fitted....

No no no no!

Keep the S paint it black or keep it standard, but I like the slats better.

I want a badgeless grill, I'm just not sure I picked right 1 :-( but I might change it yet

 

[MATTCR]

I think it makes it look "too" modified if you know what I mean lol, the S was OEM+, badgeless cheapens it but thats my opinion and its your car! its a lovely car either way

 

[C14IRE]

I'm just playing about with options ATM, people tend to paint there badges & I was told to do mine pink but I think it's a bit OTT so thought the badgeless would b nice... It's on for a while till I decide if I like it, I'm looking to see what other options there is

here is a pic of a nice grill,i was in the throws of buying this car if only i had my fd2 sold at the time.i think the guy said it was a ms design grill

 

[C14IRE]

I like that, looks more like what I was looking...

Looks much the same as yours only the mesh is more open looking. I'm not 100% on it either but it might grow on me, keep it on for a couple of weeks n see what you think then

 

[cookieboy]

This looks wicked like

Awesome looking car, even with the pink wheels I think i'd still be happy driving around in that

Not sure on the grille, it doesn't look bad, just looks like a massive jet intake or something now that could suck a small child in!

 

[C14IRE]

Thanks the pink wheels seem to be going down quite well they stand out everyone notices them

I have seen badgeless grilles & I think they look good i just dont no if I like mine...

I say keep the original grille and just black out the S maybe, or carbon wrap it.

Looks like a massive hole from those pics above. It may grow on you though.

I think I like the idea of a debadged grill, im just not sure I like the honeycomb mesh. The pictures make it look solid black on car but it actually doesnt look like that. Going to try & take other pics (not using my iphone) to try & get a proper view of it.

Came up with a couple of other ideas, to put a FR badge on grill or to make me own grill so I get excatly what I want. Have a few people looking into how I could do it, we will see.

Have a wee bit of work I want to get done before TRAX so will see how the funds pan out

FR badge onto your new grille sounds cool, mock it up and see what it looks like.

I did that the other night, except I didn't want to post the pic because I tried painting it, which didn't work to plan & I kinda didnt want to let that slip out until I had the good painted 1s ready to be fitted to the car...

But here's what it could potentially look like

Im taking photos on my iphone which i think makes the pics look worse than what they are and makes grill look solid black

 

[VRSAhmedVRS]

I love that car, looks awesome

 

[GazEP3]

I have to say its growing on me, wouldn't be a hard job to swap out the old mesh for something something a bit more open

 

[C14IRE]

Now Gav... why do you think I had you out pricing stuff today lol

Thanks

Car looks great, I'm not keen on the BTCC kit, nor BBS alloys, but somehow your car carries it off brilliantly!
