Okay So That Grille I Have On My Car Now Is Annoying Because Of One Of The Top Clips Is Broken And Also One On The Bottom Ones Too, Which Makes The Grille Wobble When Driving And Kind Of Makes A Noise, Soooo Bought Myself Another Grille With All Clips Intact, With A Ford Badge And Is In So Much Better Condition Than The Other One, And Bought For A Bargain Too, But Will Sell The Other Grille On As They Always Sell On Ebay. :)

The New One Needed A Clean Up So We Gave It A Well Needed Bath :lol: And Now Looks Good As New.
I Had A Little Idea Back Along To Spray Part Of The Grille Orange As You Will See In The Pictures, It's Not On The Car Yet As Its Still Drying, But Will Deffinatly Put Up A Picture To Show Off My Idea, :P Oh And I Wont Be Spraying It Black, I Like The Silver And Will Be Spraying My Bottom Grille Silver Too, Hope You Like It!

Orange Ford Badge WILL Be Going On!
