those of you who have put mesh/grill in the front of your pre face life post some pics.

i wish the ssIII grill fit, i wonder if it would be possible to trim it, which "mouth" is bigger?

lets use this thread as a brainstorm, because honestly i like the pre facelift better, its just the lack of accessories (clear turns, grills, etc) that suckkks.

I agree with you I love the pre face lift.....I have seen grills made for our cars...but they are over sea's. I think they where a dealer option. If this is so does anyone have a part number and can someone check to see if they still can be ordered =]

Clear turns are available for the pre facelift - here's a pic I took of a pair this afternoon biggrin.gif

Hand made to order in the U.K, they are exact copies of the originals. Not cheap, but the best

It's an APC Universal Mesh Grill that I bought at Autozone. I had to use tin snips to cut the mesh to the right size. To install it, I popped the 5 little black posts off at the bottom of the bumper and used zippy ties to hold the mesh to the posts and to the plugs that hold the bumper to the crash bar. I then put the 5 posts back on, which covered up the zippy ties. I think it looks really nice, although I have to take it off in order to change the bulbs in my fog lights.

Yeah, the they're kind of dim during the day though. I think going to wire the accent lights in the projectors to the turn signals so its easier to see.

i assumed that clear turns were standard for some as i keep finding standard 6gc's with them on in the salvage yards in the UK.
