    Default Anyone color coded a facelift front grille?

    Hi all, Iv decided to fit a black color coded front grille, Looking for part numbers of what i need, will i have to get it primed, or is there somewhere online where i can buy it ready-painted?

    and is it easy to fit?

    iirc you can buy a primed v grille from Vx... nice btcc edition btw, the bumper extensions only look good imo on a black car although i haven't seen any colour coded yet

    I've broken my chrome V-strip so be careful. Plastic clicks are very fragile. Use some knife or flat screwdriver.

    Just noticed you've got the btcc style front fins, where did you pick them up, or did they come with the car?
