Can't decide if I like them or not. Don't want a cf bonnet too as I think it would be "too" much!

You have upset my girlfriend now :L
Tbh, for the first attempt at something like cf and the skill photoshop generally takes to get it looking anything like you want it too, I think its bloody good. I hope she doesn't read this cos you will have just upset her
The previous owner did it and its shit, but if you take a bit of time over it it will look brilliant. Basically hacksaw out all the fins and the bar from the mioddle, then with some sand paper or a file file the "stubs" that are left doen flush with the rest of the grill, then you need a bit of mesh to put over the hole and glue it or fix it somehow!
Where you cut the oe bar out, you will be left with two triangle shaped bits of plastic that are black, on mine, if you use tipex for a white car it hides it prefectley!
So that's a yes for the cf wings and vent?
I'm still undecided, because its a shit load of $oney for something I honestly can't decide on! Lol.

i think it looks horrible to be honest, i dont like the way the colour breaks and thats it, if it was blended in then maybe, it looks like its been a crash repair tho to me lol
