The next step would be to add the fog lights & mesh that is fitted to the vy calias to your bumper to finish the job off. What do you reckon.

That looks good. Do you happen to have a full frontal pic like the first one, but with the mesh in there?
Also what did you have to do exactly? hmm i'm considering it, I don't like the horizontal bars in the stock grill.

yeah, just had to cut the bars out,smooth out where they were attached,cut back a lot of the moulding behind the holden emblem & do some reshaping above & below the lion.heres a front on,you cant see the mesh that much though so it tends to make it look like the lion is floating.still got a little more smoothing off to do where the bars were attached but will have to wait till next week on my days off
cheers
