I finally got this thing,(McLaren Grill) back from getting chrome painted and smoke anodized. I put the little lincoln tag on the bumper to cover up the 2 holes for the license plate. The emblem is off a 76 Lincoln

it looks good bro but if i had one i would have painted the chrome surrounding on the grill to match the car paint i think it would look much better
 
Looks nice.. but im not feelin the color of the car
 
Thanks. I just wanted to be a little different. I do like the painted surround too. I had never seen this combo.
 
This color was only avaliable from ford for 2 years. You don't see it much. That is one of the reasons I like it
 
You got Champagne LS....you should name it Cristol or something catchy.....tell the girls your car is "Bubbley" :p

I like your car color just it doesn't need the chrome :-D
 
I don't think the wife wants me to have any girls in it with me unfortunately .
:>)
 
that's it I'm taking you to a strip club :-D

make you down white russians and irish trashcans :-D
 
From your post on the bumper grille I knew you had this in mind.

Actually for some reason I thought you were going to do it with a gen 1 grille I dont know why and use the edging that they sell on the site you linked to complete the surround.

I would pant the surround also. It would look really nice then.


Great work and definitely one off!

Can you provide more pics and details on the emblem? Does it fit in the space perfectly?

My boss took me to a strip club a while back. Bought me several private dances. I was getting a private dance and he comes back there and tells me "It is o.k. if you squirt a little" . Freakin' classic :>)

It is just a little long but it looks cool because it stands out and gives it more dimension. I used 3m vhb to hold it on. Shimmed it up with 3 pieces.
Here is another one on Ebay

So you took off your front license plate....so does your state require the front to be on or you willing to take the ticket? Cause I hate the license plate on my LS cause it looks like a Hitlerstash :p
 
looks good

Looks good and it is different.:)

It looks good , wonder if you get the chrome bumper inserts if it would set the chrome sceme of a little. I did the painted grill

I really like it except the chrome surround, now it is standing out too much

N.C. doesn't use a front license plate.
GO HEELS!!!!!!!By the way.
 
When I did the Mclaren grille and LSE bumper I went with the body color surround and the black center to balance the lower grille. Straight forward and simple. No regrets. Just wish the paint would hold up as good as the original bumper did......Can't have everything I guess.

You should name your car Abe cause it's a copper Lincoln

No, my car is already named Abe. You can't take it. Car looks good. I'd rather have the holes than the lincoln badge on the front bumper though.
