Finally got a day off with some free time to work on the LS. A month or so back I purchased an 02 LSE Spoiler from Bill Jenkins at Team Ford....helpful, friendly guy to deal with and man, I love the spoiler….what a touch it ads to the back end of the car. Also picked up a McClaren Grille off of Ebay as well. Had them both painted and they have been sitting in my garage awaiting this very day. Application of both items was quite simple. After test fitting the spoiler and marking its location, the spoiler went on easy. For the McClaren grill, some may recall me posting questions concerning the attachment hardware, as I could not remove the stuff from my factory 06 Grille. In a quest, I found exactly what I needed in Lowes making this job a snap. The materials I acquired for this make it much easier then adapting the studs from the factory grille to the McClaren Grille and frankly, I think it is a better method for attaching the grille. If time permits, I may do a little write-up on it.
So what do you think on the grille??? It started out as gloss black, but I hated it…. just didn’t pop like I wanted. I masked off the surround and painted the grille area with cast, which I like much better, however, I’m wondering now if I should have painted it in matte black. Think I need to loose the front plates too!
