Paint the silver bar in the centre of the grille black. Will look loads better, I did it on my R53 after putting an aero grille on

Bet the 57i sounds good, loved mine on the r52

hopefully the strut brace will be with you tomorrow or Tuesday

Sorry no I mean the strengthening bar on the bonnet in the centre of the upper grille, do that black

On my r56 though that chrome bar on the lower grille I just painted with plasticote, it’s held up pretty well and when it does get marked I’ll just peel it off and reapply
