Well having been asked by everyone what happened to my grill (surround was missing for 3 weeks) ive fefitted it

let me know what you think.

Takes a little getting used to, didn't ike it at first but now its grown on me and i'm starting to think its like the astra Vrx

quick pic in the dark.

I think it looks quite smart, makes it look slightly more agressive

best losing the reg mate or the skoda warranty police will have you , yeah it does look a bit different without the chrome , not to bad though

Looks good:thumbup: thinking of doing it to mine, is it easy to remove the surround and how did you spray the chrome bit?

p.s Just looked at your sig, you should join the Jabba ARB group buy:rolleyes:

youve read my mind on both. how to will follow when i have time

will buy ARB when i have money.

Catch 22

I think i prefer your new stylee grille to the existing chrome one....... Wouldn't mind dowing something like that to my Black Magic when i get it.

The how to would be appreciated.

Cheers

Dave.

cool something else for me to do.

Looks good mate:thumbup: ,colour coding my grille was one of my first mods and i personally think they look so much better that way,i'm just not into the chrome thing

Looks really smart. Cant remember if someone posted a 'how to' on the forum sometime ago. If not would appreciate some pointers.

Looks really smart mate, i've got a red vRS too so i'll be doing the same to that. Is the chrome bit easy enough to remove for painting?

It looks amazing mate.... i wasnt thinking about doin the same to mine.. but after seeing the result with ur i think that i've changted my mind

A definate improvement I've always thought the chrome grill to be the only thing letting the fabia's looks down. This is definately one thing I've got on my list to do. Did you do it yourself or take it to a bodyshop and how much did it cost?

Cheers

Looks great IMO. Would be less of an impact on my silver vRS however.

This is something I've been thinking about doing.

You've just confirmed that it looks spot on!

looks cool. im in the middle of doin mine now. it drying in the sun. i bought a spare chrome surround from this very site on saturday,so i can put chrome back on if need to at any point. got it tues day. primed it yesterday painting it today. p.s what did you use to stick badge back on.

It looks hot dude. Nice one.

Never thought i'd be a fan of the colour coded grille, but, you may have swayed me ! Looks great.

Definitely how the vRS should have looked when it left the factory.

Subtle mod that makes a huge difference to how the front of the car looks. Painting mine Black Magic when funds allow.

Just to 'add balance' to the thread. I dont like the colour coded grills at all. I MUCH prefer the chrome

I think it looks good, the chrome grille suits cars that have more chrome on them, like window surrounds etc, but with only the grille I think it looks nice colour coded.

yeh just unclips from rear.

Did you do it yourself or take it to a bodyshop and how much did it cost?

Did it myself with halfrauds spray can. still waiting for my dealer to get the can i ordered. parts manager is away on holiday and noone else knows bout it!

p.s what did you use to stick badge back on.

nothing cos i didnt take it off! just unclipped the chrome surround

Just to 'add balance' to the thread. I dont like the colour coded grills at all. I MUCH prefer the chrome

well as cartman says "scr*w you man"

just kidding each to there own, i'm just not a bling person (tried to sway my dad away from chrome running rails on his car but he went for them anyway and mirrors on the fronts of the wing mirrors?!?)

Cheers for all the good comments now to see about the door handles, and the black grille itself!

Scott

That could be for me, especially in red.

more to annoy Robbo than anything else.....

I don't suppose you have any pics of yours with the colour coded grille surround do ya???

Cheers

Dave.

Certainly looks good color coded.

Thanks tho':rolleyes: as i cant decide which looks better, the chrome surround painted red or black?
