Cupra R 'Big Mouth Grill' mod questions

[nitrome90]

I've been seeing mod around, on instagram and Google but have no idea how it's done/how to do it?

There has been another forum on it a long time ago but wondered if I could get some more up to date info on it? Anyone done the mod themselves?

Thanks

Have a look at these threads, should give you an idea. I really like the look myself but it's where to put the number plate afterwards and have it look neat.

Thank you, yeah I was wondering about the licence plate, not too knowledgeable on laws, couldn't you put it on the windscreen? On top of the dash? I mean, Is that road legal or not?

I like it to but will be prone to getting stones whacking the radiator maybe even damaging it

Not really any worse than standard, the standard grill mesh is quite wide anyway, mines been done for the last 4yrs 30k without issue. I've got a slimmer plate that screws onto a couple of little drop down tabs from the top.

Looks awesome man!

What size sheet of honeycomb mesh would be needed for this?
Would 30x120 be easily enough? Looking at doing the upper grills, too, possibly.
