Well I have now installed my European upper and lower grills. It took a few extra days to get the lower installed as I ran out of daylight on Sunday. Here are some pictures of the finished product. Please don't mind the disgusting state on my car, I hate the amount of road salt the city uses.

Also the condition of the Ford logo was really bad. All the blue was gone so I removed the hood lock/logo assembly and modified my original emblem as a replacement. It is a tiny bit smaller than the one that came with it but it look a hell of a lot better.

It was a black hole opening up in my driveway, or a rupture in the space time continuum. Or something like that. LOL

It was actually photo editing issues with Photobucket.

Yeah I know it needs a bath, but I need to install some fog light bulbs first. Right now the plugs are just hanging there.

I picked up some scrap vinyl from a sign shop and made them myself. I am going to have to replace them soon as they have been on there for about 3 years. I am hoping to get something closer to the colour of my car for the next set.

Nice, but I made mine for free. Remember I am cheap. If I can do it myself I will.

I used some plain paper to make a template and then transfered it to the vinyl, cut it out, then stuck them on. It was a bit difficult getting the one line across the middle of the light but I took my time and everything worked out in the end.
