when i updated grills from the standard ef fairmont grill i grabbed the 1st EL ghai grill that turned up.. (at a decent price).. lil did i notice the grey accents in the grill as it was off a gun metal grey fairmont..

so up to now ive put up with it... got sick of it latelt though and decided to do something about it.. so here are a few before and after pics.. :wink:

Hmmm, well I think it looks better than a stock El Mont grill, coz the EF one looks 10x better. But yeah, an improvement I think.

ive noticed it makes the chrome surround "Stand out" that much more.. and also it has a bit more of the "DUB" look... so im happy and it only cost the price of a can of spray paint at Bunnings and a bit of electrical tape to protect the chrome from overspray.. 8-)

I like it better how it is now :)

Makes the chrome and ford badge stand out more. Looks good.
