Hi fellow enthusiasts, thought I'd show you how my grille came up. Hit a Galah 3 years ago and cracked the grille. It's taken me until now to do something about it so here it is. What do you reckon? P5020005.jpg

Any of you guys want to do a photo walkthrough.

Looks good, I wouldn't mind giving it a go, as I don't want to be like everyone else and put a Chevy badge on it.

Can't do a photo walk through as I didn't take any pics as i was doing it. (Was hard enough getting time away from missus and baby to even do it! Promised not to do anything else to the car for a while!) I could write up how it's done though if you want.

Looks good.
Im making a new grille at the moment too. Ive taken a VY exec chev grille and a standard SS grille. unclipped the silver chev logo and bar, chopped the middle out of the SS grille and glued some screws to it, bolted it to the remnants of the chev grille. The resin is drying at the moment so its all clamped up.

The silver tape around the edge is so i can see what it looks like with a sliver edge.
