@Narpy, when do we get part 2 "the glueing stage" ?
I did my grill yesterday, I used my glue gun in strategic places. You don't need a to do guide for this bit. I would say clamps are a necessity. Luckily I had six quick clamps to keep it locked in place while glueing, otherwise that would have been a pain!

Thanks for the grill guide, without seeing that I wouldn't have thought possible to do it!

This mod does look good but does anyone register this with their insurance company?
I have no real knowledge of this subject outside of reading my policy booklet and having a cousin's insurance claim for theft invalidated as he had newly fitted alloy wheels and added an OEM spoiler. He fought tooth and nail against the insurance company but to no avail.

Robbie, I guess in that case, as it was vehicle theft, the only way the Insurance company knew it was fitted with the spoiler for example is that your cousin told them as it was added value to his cost of replacement / claim ?
If that's the case, I'd not be mentioning things on the car that should not be on and accepting the financial hit ????
