Got mine today. Anyone have recommendations on how to fit the front V, I assumed it would fit over existing, bit looks like it will snag on the griffin, and I either need to remove that or take the whole existing V off.

My vee & splitters arrived today. I assumed the vee would have some connectors to fix to the grill. How do people normal secure these in place? Cheers

Just messaged Scott. Apparently there's a couple of options... 1. Fix with cable ties in discrete places. You would need to drill a small hole in the V and clam and cable tie. 2. Bond using tigerseal 3. Combination of the two above! I hope that helps :D

Yup, cable ties are perfect. No need to put holes in the clam though. Two or three small holes in the hidden sections of the V and thread a thin black cable tie through the hole, through the grill and back out again and all is good and invisible unless you're lying on the ground looking for them.

I'll save you the trouble. Mine has already come off and the original de-badged V has gone back on. :lol:

Hi guys, Scott sends his apologies. Your parts are nearly ready, I think he's waiting on the bodyshop. He couldn't give an ETA as he didn't want to be held to a specific date as he's relying on others (bodyshop), but it is a priority for him.

And me. I doubt i'll have my car by the time it arrives. Due to a new house purchase and no garage from September until Jan(ish) mines up for sale. If they arrive in time then the new owner can have them otherwise i'll stick them in the loft until I inevitably buy a VXR in the future.
