I also agree, keep the badge, but maybe try make it stick out more? I was thinking about removing the grey 'wings' on my grille and leaving it meshless with just the badge, but IMO it needs to stick out more. Otherwise, nice work

the mesh grille is something i've always wanted to do i got the idea from the BA. After joining the forums and seeing a few pics and you also doing it recently i got the motivation to go ahead.

i'm not interested in doing the lower bar although it looks killa on yours.
when i saw you'd re-sprayed cardinal red i was like nooooooooooooooooo lol we are the cardinal red fairmonts mate they might as well both be SIK.

im workin on some photochops of future exterior mods, ill share em with u when they are done
