Gen 3 Grille on Gen 3.5 without shaving the bumper (PICS)

[sk8ersublime]

ok so you guys know that i did the gen 3 black Depos and HIDs, and until now I was using the gen 3.5 grille with the gen 3 headlights and just dealing with the holes that were there from the old lights....well i finally painted Joe's (eyeball) grille that i bought from him, and put it on. I did not want to trim my bumper incase i decide to do retro fits on gen 3.5 lights, i wanted to use that grille still if i needed to. So i decided to dremel off the bottom of the gen 3 grille so the lip would fit into it, instead of push against it...i think i need to trim it a little more, but right now...looks pretty good, a small gap is there, but its not really noticeable unless you are a camry freak (like many of us) . The head on pic makes it look like its sticking out a bit and that is why i need to take about another 2cm off the bottom, and straighten the cut a bit. The paint matches perfectly, i bought a spray can fom www.automotivetouchup.com it was like $30 shipped, and for the emblem(which was the awful gold) i picked up a small spray can of Chrome paint from autozone for $5. anyway, here are the pics i took.
