    Default New MY12 Chrome grill Surrounds

    Hey guys,

    Just wondering if the new chrome surround on the MY 12 fronts is part of the black grill or part of the actual front spoiler.

    Thanks heaps,
    Murphington

    Part of the grill mate, if you want the chrome bits then you gotta buy the grills too.

    To install is easy, you will have to remove your front fascia, I removed the front fender liners to make it easier but this is not nessasary.

    I'd be curious to see how the chrome would look on a Series 1. If only the grille would fit.

    Yeah, got it. Just had an image in my head of the chrome on a series 1. I wonder if any other alternative methods could be used to get the look.

    Thanks so much

    If i already have a MY11 series 2 is it just a matter of buying
    the chrome surrounds or do i need a newer grill + foglight covers and lower grill?

    Thanks

    You will need to purchase all new grill to fit each bit of chrome, as each grill is smaller to fit the chrome surrounds. Also the Radiator grill does not come with a Lion Badge, you can use your old badge as I did
