The CCM one sounds like it is just the bumper (ie. no mounts!)

 

The bodyshop will have to cut your old bumper up and bond it's mounts into the new bumper. Couple of hours work and will make fitting quite abit more expensive!

 

.....and you'll need more mesh than that! Mines got £100 of the ST stuff on the front, although it does have 2 extra vents.

No-can-do, mine met a bollard on the front corner and is cracked so dunno what condition the mounts are in.

You sure that i'll need more ST mesh than that for the Evotech? thats the price ESP says

How do you think it would look with round hold mesh so i could keep my lockwood upper?

Post a pic of the damage Unless its summin' serious where the actual bumper has been pushed back, I reckon it'll be fine. The bodyshop will bond the yellow foam-like stuff in.

 

I ordered the ST mesh, and it's just about enough to do the three gaps in the bumper. It's very tough stuff.... I used industrial guillotine to cut it! I ordered an extra piece though so I wasn't being stingy on what I was bonding to the bumper.

 

IMO.... sell ya lockwood and buy another piece of ST mesh, mis-matching grilles looks ESP sell a size which measures 31' by (something, about 7 I think).... which costs about £30. This is almost a perfect width for the upper grille, but the height will need chopping down.

 

I fixed my upper grille with 2 cable ties and the middle wedged between the bumper and some metalwork!

ESP= the best quality u can get

CCM= shite

 

that's the upshot of it all, tis worth paying the extra, and ST mesh looks approximately 3598753285790318572572875875825780 times better than a lockwood grille

Halo ring fogs £71.13

If i buy the evotech then is it worth paying £71 for Halo ring driving lamps! instead of the already expensive £45ish quid standard fogs?

Depends if ya want Halo's!

 

Whatever you do, I would reccomend buying one of their fog lamps. Sime said that laguna fogs were the right size and like £15 from a scrappy..... but I'm not sure what the mounts are like. The ESP ones line up very well if you're prefered to give 'em a bit of time for fine adjustment.
