Really good stuff in here Nathanhrv,
I'm keen to see the chrome meshing in your front bar... considering we have the same model. I'm just lucky I have the green colour, so I didn't have to muck around with around paint behind the grille. I was going to put some mirrored PVC or something behind, but I think it's come up decent how it is. Cheers, Russ.

If you are talking about the chrome strip on the front abr insert, your car should have it if it is a EL Ghia |

Just means I'll have to grab some later on

GLi Bar won't work, just checked your pics, your car is fitted with a Mont bar.

Russ Good luck trying to find one that isn't flakeing or faded purple. You don't really need to replace the whole bar anyway, just the inserts. What you should do is hunt around for the ghia inserst matching your body colour, then separate the faded chrome and replace it with new strips from ebay. Came up a treat on mine
