How did you do the fog light covers aswell. I really like the idea of having the fog light covers and the grille matching with the honeycomb. Any answers would be great e.g where you got the mesh from process of the diy fitment etc. Thanks guys

I Thought the honey comb fog light surround is standard on the Spec B's.

Has anyone got a pic of the back of the modded grill?

finally got it done before XMas last year.

had bought a sheet of aluminium years ago and never got around to do it.
The Grille is an OEM Pre-FaceLift 5th Gen Grille.
had cut out all the middle bits and left the outer rim with the Chrome.
The mesh is secured with 3x cable ties while the edges are bent to "lock" in with the inner edge of the OEM grille
Then used a glue gun to stick a spare emblem in the center and Voila !!

Silver on white for a change from the regular black theme

Good stuff. That looks better than the OEM version in my opinion.
