I decided to give the MS6 a bit of a facelift. I started by ordering:
All Fit Lip Kit with 1.5" lip, for front/rear bumpers:
Lip Kit For Cars | Traditional 1.5 Inch All-Fit Lip Kit
And Diamond XXL powder coat black grille mesh from customcargrilles.com
https://www.customcargrills.com/proddetail.asp?prod=Diamond_XXL
I pulled the front bumper off and got to work.
I was very impressed with the All Fit lip kit. It comes premade with that 3M tape and a bunch of screws/washers for a good install. It isn't that garage door stuff; it is a very solid but flexible lip material and it installed very nicely.
Next was the custom car grille mesh sheet. I watched a few of the guy's videos before trying this. You should too. I followed his instructions and got the grille mounted up and glued. Note, this is reversible and the stock grille could go back on if I wanted.
Here the grille is cut, mounted, bent to shape and glued to the bumper.
I knew my crashbar looked shitty, so I used some of that garage door stuff that people used to use for lips, and used double sided tape so when people look through the grille they don't see a mess, since the new grille is wide open.
Here's the bumper ready to go on with the all fit lip and grille
And here's a few pics of the setup, in and out of the sun.
