I wanted to do that for some time ... instead I got to do the same stripes as on my stormtrooper + my son's name in crome letters on his white bed ....... :slayer: he loves it...

back to the thread... I really like the honeycomb on the bravo... fits it well.. good job.. wanted it ever since I saw it on the fiat-bravo.info

Cheers - Stormi.

Way to go MarkRacoon !

Stripes does the trick and excellent to hear that your son loves the
chrome lettering A future Fiat fan, perhaps

Yes. "Snowtiger " & "Italiano 118" made these first at the German Forum.
These three are all different in finishing, allthought they all share the same
honeycomb style

It's a shame no one manufactures these so that you can buy and fit them direct, it's a really nice mod stormi but it looks like a lot of faffing around, shame the aftermarket guys don't consider making more enhancements for our cars..................

All the grilles will be finished with paint, black. So that will give the final
touch.

Ms- Design has one model for sale:

Finished the lower grille´s lip in black + a black chrome list.

The grill looks amazing mate. Is it a job anyon can tackle? =]

That looks really tasteful! Better than OEM in my opinion. Fiat take note!

Thanks ! Must say that I´m pleased with the result.

Whyd did you black out the chrome on the top part of the grille and then added chrome to the lower part??

Because total black "is too black", for my taste. Besides, there´s
a chromed "Abarth" logo wich matches with the lower grille.

Upper grille is now painted with glossy black and also the
lower one will get the same treatment.




Used last august 3d-tape to finish the grilles first, but must say that the
paint really did the finishing touch to the whole package.

One evening pic as the sun goes down:

How do you remove the grills?

now I like it

@ Colin:

Gently lift up the upper part and at the same time pull the
grille towards you, from different parts of the grillle.

The grille has several clips, so be careful that you don´t
brake these. Mainly pull it to get it off, push it back.

The same with the lower one.

@Tad:

Thank´s I guess it just takes several " Evo´s " to get the
final touch.

Today I finished all the grilles & the fog light covers with
glossy black.

" Mission " completed

Did you just use metal mesh from like ebay and glue it in, or did you use something else a little how too would be good

If you read the thread he tells you how he does it. Uses the grill from a Seat Altea. Cut, glued and painted it look at post number 7

I read that as he used that for insperation not the actual grille

Took 12 hours to do this and two lower front grilles from
a Seat Altea, 2005.

I'd like to do this but wouldn't even know where to start

Can anyone suggest a uk alternative to the glue he suggests?

I used araldite extra strong from any diy place and clamped overnite. Grille holding well.
