Really easy.

1/ Open bonnet.

2/ remove 2x clips from top of kidney grill.

3/ Close bonnet, but don't latch it down.

4/ remove kidney grill.

The grills on either side of the kidney are removed in the same way, but they also have 2x small phillips screws each on the bottom as well as the 2 clips at the top.

Looks good, I would've painted the rest of the grill black too so it matches?

Comes out just as easy as the Kidneys.

Sorry the wheels came with the car so don't really know what they are. I do know they're BBS and thats about it.

Best person to ask would be Ray at HELLBM thats where the car came from.

I'll see what i can do about pics.

Nah bro, you don't do that as the paint eventually chips and it looks like arse. You just remove them, wash in hot soapy water, then hit em with silicone spray.

Those are 5 lug. Unless I'm missing something, but that car looks pretty stock..

I think I'll be looking for a set of those dished weaves, perfect.
