Another small mod

GREAT IDEA . LOOKS GREAT I WAS GOING TO MESH MINE BUT AFTER SEEING YOURS . I MIGHT JUST BE STEALING THAT IDEA(y)(y)
 
liking the idea are you going to do the plastic grill in bumper?ive been trying to source the chrome mesh that was used on my focus but painting it sounds good idea to

Yes, now thinking about doing the other lower grills too. Although slightly bigger job and means getting in behind the bumper to remove it all. But I think you can see where I'm going with this.
 
Nice touch there Tim (y)
I see you didn't use the plasticote laquer? it makes the chrome go duller.
Btw, I noticed the mod straight away, but didn't like to say anything :ihih: :LOL:

Bloody hell Al, you must have eagle eyes to have spotted that! lol, but yeh, your right, I didn't use the laquer - quite happy with the finish I got on it (y)

yep! I've used the stuff many times Tim :wink5:
As for getting the bottom grills out! just look for the clips and push the grill backwards from outside, there will always be one weak clip. Just feel for it, and attack that one first, just push with the thumb. (y)

I sprayed mine silver frost, when i did the kit etc, but it doesn't show up like it would on the other colour cats. I'm also going to fill in the towing eye/foglight access covers with black paint to highlight the diamond grill effect on them.

Ok, cool, thanks for that Al. When I have some more time and the weather stays dry...which it is at the moment - then I'll have a go. I'm trying to get stuff done before the Modified Live meet...hopefully new alloys too...will wait and see..(y)
 
Forgot to mention - been today to Halfrauds and bought a Meguiars Clay Bar pack for £25, so will be giving the Coug the treatment tomorrow...can't wait to see the results.

Did you not know about Als secret modding radar?. You only have to open a tool box and Al gets an alarm.:skep:
