djsubtronic Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Very nice. How did you get that RS effect which extends the lower corners of the radiator grille? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikeyp84 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Looks sprayed. Was thinking of doing matt black to my lower grille area but left it alone. Definitely looks good though.聽 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djsubtronic Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 It does. I just put new grills on yesterday so still thinking of ideas, but I think that extension would be a bit pointless on black! 聽 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikeyp84 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Lol, not really. I would look to get a diffuser maybe to make the bumper stand out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, I've got that in the pipeline for some point when I can afford it :) In the meantime I'm thinking of blacking out the bonnet lip and adding some mean eyebrows.

Mikeyp84 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Yeh diffuser, spoiler, lip same thing lol. And definitely get the brows. That's what i want to get but they're a bit lame for my model. Don't know about blacking out the bonnet strip though, the chrome is a good break in the contrast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikeyp84 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 I'm in process of doing rear bumper strip red. Just keyed it, gonna spray tomorrow. Got 2 cans of Matt black in boot so gonna do bottom lip on front rear and sides. Was thinking about spraying the lower grille to look like a 2.5 but worried I might make a big balls up lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did you get that RS effect which extends the lower corners of the radiator grille? I sprayed it gloss black, done my bonnet lip the same time, I've since done my wing mirrors gloss black as well, all done from a can, quite pleased with the results TBH 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
