stants Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 Hi mate I had a similar problem with a grill I installed on another car, Managed to get hold of some rubber edging that finished it off nicely prevented the bottom from scratching anything and held it's self in place.
tom_gr7 Posted June 5, 2014 Author Posted June 5, 2014 thanks chaps, pretty happy with it. I'm surprised how different the car looks just by adding the spoiler and a mesh grille. Stanton, lol, erm, what is rubber edging when its at home?
stants Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 Haha, ill see if I can either find what I had left and you can have it or find a pic of something similar. Imagine taking the flex of a plug and cutting down one side and removing the innards, what you have left is a hollow u shape flexable peice of rubber. Sorry for the random description but I couldn't describe it any other way 1

tom_gr7 Posted June 5, 2014 Author Posted June 5, 2014 oh i see...but what would i do with that? lol, i feel like i should know the answer haha edit, oh, you mean put the edging around the frame of the grille?
stants Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 Yep may fill the little gap and stop it moving and protect the paintwork Sent from my SM-T210
BoozyDave Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 looking good lol @ tom . that should fill the gap up nicely
tom_gr7 Posted June 8, 2014 Author Posted June 8, 2014 hmm, thanks for the suggestion stanton. But im not sure if i would like a rubber trim around it. i was going to get some double sided sticky foam, and stick the bottom of the grill to the bumper? edit, double sided foam didnt work. Just cant seem to get it flush with the bumper :(
Jay762 Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 looking good - after going back to the original photos I see what you have had sprayed - I thought you were going to have the mesh colour coded to match Doh!!
