Guys and Girls,

Please find attached my guide for replacing the upper front grille on the Ford Focus Mk2.5.

This guide can be used for modifying to the ST grille or for direct replacement of your original grille.

For those who wish to know, the FINIS number for the ST Grille is 1538478. Quote this at any ford dealer and they will confirm its an ST Grille.

Please note, the bonnet lock mechanism is quite fragile and is known to break easily. This happened to me, and although i have included a fix in my guide, I cannot be held responsible for any breakages!!


Happy Modifying!

Great guide mate and will be useful for people wanting to change their grill.

Also noticed we got the same gel overlays lol.


On a side note about the bonnet lock problem, don't think you've seen it but I actually wrote a guide on explaining and fixing the bonnet lock problem a while ago.

[TDCiST]

Ah in that case at least there are plenty of guides available for people if they break them!!

[Gavc]

ST front upper grille ordered, collect tomorrow, so will hopefully be fitting this weekend, your guide will be invaluable!!

Cheers mate

if you can get the paint/carbon vinyl it would be a good time to do your bonnet lip also

[Gavc]

Yeah was thinking that, if I can make my mind up on what to do lol, do you have a link to where you purchased your vinyl?
