What i would like to know is - as you can see in the image below all the fitting (top grill - Lower Grill) are held on with some kind of clip that as been heat melted to hold it all together

The boys on here who have done the face lift did you remove all the grills or just tape and covered them up Question

A decent Bodyshop can mask around and lose the edge. This helps if the bumper was the right colour to start with like mine was.

You can remove it, but they are bloody expensive to replace as the original cannot be re-used very easily. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........

Thanks Mav
Thought as much, that's why I asked for a gray one Thumbs Up

Another question
The grill as a few marks so it also needs spraying along with the surround
Don't want to pay out for a 3 part spray job
So does anyone know what the 2 colours are on the grill and the darker surround
might even do the surround in black Question not to sure at the moment what to go with Rolling Eyes BETTER looking half of the famous Twinlanders

I would paint the grill surround gloss black as this is what the 2013 model has. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........

Just to add to the above the grill surround is actually metallic black rather than straight gloss black. Smile
