I am sure others will reply to this fairly quickly, but they will probably agree with me - you can get a similar product from Halfords for a bit less which does a good job. I was a bit sceptical but I am really pleased with the results. Try a search on "chrome grill" or similar and you will pick up the thread which will gve you the details of the actual product.

By sealing do you mean ensuring that it adheres properly? Or did you use wax or some other coating to protect it?

[Liam's Z]

Both mate

 

I haven't sealed mine properly!!! water got under it causing it 2 bubble Needs gluing or some type of lacquer

[jim]

Thanks for the warning. I haven't noticed any problems as yet, but I will take your advice and see if I can prevent that happening.

 

Looks good ATM though.

Fitted my new grill today and it wasn’t quite as straightforward as I thought. Very happy with the result though.

[Liam's Z]

very nice nana slightly wonky at the top but very good expensive??? and how did you fit it, take it the bumper came off???

[Nana Moon]

It is a bit wonky at the top, ill sort that tomorrow. It cost 142 Pounds so not cheap. The old plastic grill had to be chopped out completely to fit the new one (I was a bit nerves about that as the grill is for an MY06 only and mine is a 03).

I got it here,

Looks like you need 2 cut the top slightly shorter than the rest

 

Brave man hacking away,,, but worth it imo

my grill hasn't bubbled up at all. Think yours liam is more the U shaped stuff (like the stuff you could put along the edge of doors to protectect the paintwork) if I remember correctly. That is no longer available in Halfords and only the more flatter section with adhesive backing in two widths is in stock.

 

Some pictures here of the halfords kit fitted
