V good mod, I had no trouble getting mine in, although getting the old one out was another story! Had to completly snap it to get to the clips on the drivers side!

worth the 40mins of hard work though :)

Mine fit snuggly on my Dynamique bumper, but is a bit iffy on my RS one strangely.


Mines not quite right either tbh, has about a 3-4mm gap on the passanger side for some reason :S or the clips are in right though! kinda made me think it's been in a smash and the fronts wonky! but then again the old one sat flush, so f**k knows :eek:

Ye dealers usually ask you for your reg to look up your car, obviously if you are putting a sport grill on a non sport car you need to make that clear to them that you want the sport grill and not the standard one.

As for removing its really easy lift bonnet take the 2 plastic screw plugs out and slowly push each edge of the grill back towards the engine of the car left side then right then pop the middle out , it sounds harsh but it worked for me, found a post on here explaining how to do it, Then give it a wipe down on painwork then fit your new one, Less than a 5 min job :)
