    Hey guys and gals,

    I scratched up the front end off my ute on the weekend and pulled of the bumper for some much needed repairs. On doing so i end up spraying the lower grill to match the duco. What are peoples thoughts?

    I'm considering doing the same for the upper grill where the holden logo is mounted?

    you can buy them through holden. Part number - 92164493

    costs around 25 - 28 dollars. easy to fit, just remove the front bar and put it in position. you will need to glue it in some how as the utes do not have the clips like the sedans do.

    removing the front bar is a piece of piss. 2 screws either side inside the wheel arches and 3 under the bonnet at the top of the emblem thing. i think some models have 2 screws behind the number plate. mine didnt but i think some do. or just under the number plate. i could be wrong. anyway, after you have undone them go to the side of the bar and pull it to the back of the car and out. repeat for the other side and it will come straight off. easy!

    oh, and dont forget to unclip the foggies...
