the badge list so far is as below

Trebor
Devilish
nealejeffery
T Cut
48Rov06
Dragos Caraulan
K£150N
ceetdm
CDTi
Neil Coupland
Radioguy
iaonajohn

This would mean £10 each towards tooling costs plus £10.50 for the badge = £20.50, i will make enquiries to the manufacturer over the next few days for those who may want a different looking badge after the initial run so watch this space

Hi Sean, i havent pmd anyone yet but will do so as soon as i get the template from Steve - that pm will give you my paypal details

by the way i am sure members appreciate your efforts in getting a lot of very desirable mods that were previously not available such as head units, rear lights, walnut wheels, powerfolds and now premium bumpers - well done !

Hi All,
looking at Develish's page on the new grille, in the fifth picture (rear view) there are three raised squares on the surface behind the position at which the number plate would sit. Does anyone know whether this is in preparation for front parking sensors?

Regards,
Kearton

Found this over on .org - looks like there is an extra plastic piece behind this premium bumper:

CDTi has provided a pic already so there is no point me posting one.

Now you know what the squares are for. A bolt with a square flat head is glued into each of the 3 recesses to secure the deflector. Because these are hidden by the numberplate, holes can be drilled through the bumper and carefully countersunk, M4 or M3 flat head brass bolts and nuts can be then used.

Issues such as these shall be addressed in the guide, but first I need the part, as I run the risk of being asked 'what the point is in showing how to fit something that no one can buy'. I am however, quite confident this part will become available

Just read through the whole thread

to all those who have worked hard to get this far.
I was however, also going to ask about the air vent at the rear of the bumper behind the top grill, until I got to the last two posts.
Without this peice we will be unable to fit the Bumper to the top valance (5 x bolts) that runs infront of the radiator. I have just bought a bumper off Ian as a project for me to fit in for winter use, instead of the one which is in my car now (Mk2 with JDL front spoiler).
I will be ordering when the above air intake is available or we find a `fix` to get around it and if we can get a MG badge to fit also.

Excellent `How Too` Devilish, Dremils are great are they not?

yes a lot of thought and work has gone into this by all the guys!!!! cant wait for the grills to arrive. i bought a facelift bumber removed the fog light brackets and top plastic backing that youve just mentioned. cut and adapted them to suit my premium bumper then fiberglassed them on. my bumper is now looking minted on my car with its new mk2 by xenon headlights waiting for my grill to arive to finish it.
