Looks good to me.

The beauty with vinyl is that you can try it out and if you don't like it just peel it off again :)

Might give it ago Saturday, its the big lip sticking out that puts me off might not look right. like you said if I dont like it I can take it off.

i love it !

Not a fan personally, although it is obviously personal preference.

How about just the vertical bars to make it look like one big grill?

Or maybe just wrapping the front lip in front of the main section?

Gives it an RS look

No!

Exactly, seen a few fiesta with this looks and it looks great, will definitely see some people do this to the focus now though!

Looks good, especially with the section of red you've left showing in the middle.

Beauty of vinyl that you can play about to your heart's content without the one-time hit you get by painting :)

Not for me I'm afraid mate. Looks a little McDonald's car park, but maybe I'm just getting old and boring lol.

Would of done the insert but its to hard to vinyl, its not perfect so it might be coming off.

I've done various vinyl mods on my car and in some cases I've used multiple sections of material instead of trying to do it all in 1 piece.

Not obvious unless you look closely but really helps when the alternative would be lots of trial and error plus a hair dryer trying to stretch the vinyl to cover all sorts of funny shapes.

One job which defeated me was when I tried to do the front foglamp pods in satin black, as they've got small recesses in them and was impossible/beyond my meagre skill to get the vinyl to sit flush over them :( plan B worked ok though as I just highlighted the recesses with strips of black instead.

Have a nice sticker man who supplies the satin black to me pretty cheap and it seems easier to work with than the gloss black if you have to apply and re-apply several times to get lines right etc.

Love it still!!!
