Hi all, after some advice on grille mods, here is the car now



I was thinking of changing the side grilles and the front grille, and perhaps painting the bar on the bonnet, but what to do???? I want it to look good, not huge on chrome.

Very much like these from the bay



Would they look rite on a silver car? and what front grille to go with, I'm thinking black mesh, don't know what to do with the bottom grille or fog surrounds.

Any pics or input would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers, Steve

Hi, I got those side vents on mine, I took them apart and had the mesh painted to match my front grill, I like them but the fitment towards the fender is not perfect so I'm thinking about replacing them with OE 2012 SC ones.

Nice colour car, i like it, the vents look good, but your concern about fitment obviously puts me off, maybe i could paint my originals, as long as i can get it looking perfect.

Simply colour code the door handles, current side vents and front grill surrounds

You could go all in like Craig with black accents on bumper and grill center:

Thats exactly what i want!!

Just had to ask

The grilles on my car (pics above) all were exactly the same as your car SASDISCO. If you need any more info or help with the project? Drop me a PM sir

Oh & thank you J

Craig, i will do just that, many thanks.

Steve

I think your car looks spot on as it is, maybe just some colour coded door handles is all I would be changing looks classy as it is

For me colour coded OEM side vents and the mesh Supercharged grill with gloss black surround look the best on a silver car

Ive done the door handles, just not in that pic. Im thinking i might paint the side fins body colour and then look at the front grille, I'm not so keen on the chrome as i was when i brought it.

Still, I'm hopefully gonna keep this car for more than a year, so it will give me time to do all the bits i need. New year i will be ordering the brembos from dan. Thats my top of the to do list.

Hi andy180

Would you mind sharing more pics of the front of your Rangie. I've always wondered what it would look like to have a gloss black grill surround (à la 2012 MY) with "primer grey" (2009/11MY) headlights. Does it show a lot or does it kind of blends out?

Thank you in advance. l=Oo\________/oO=l l:OolΞΞΞΞΞΞΞloO:l

OK, I'll be the one who says it....

"why on earth do you wanna change that....it's lovely as it is!"  Is this where I put the car details and a bit about myself ?........

Nick, I just don't like too much chrome, just want to tone it down a little, but want to keep it looking factory, as it were. I think i will change the side gills and just black up the bottom chrome grille and fog surrounds.
