We had a completly custom IC made up within 2 weeks. We sent a template diamensions etc..> They made it.

Its bloody perfect, cannot fault it at all. Great service, and reliable company for backup as well.

PACE gets my vote.

I saw yours in your gallery, difference is yours is taller and sat further back so that the top half can fit behind the top of the bumper. What i'm after is a slim one that sits in the lower grill area and will sit flush with the rest of the bumper. Nic said TomSBD had the same setup. Waiting for him to reply to my u2u with pics because all the pictures in his WIP are corrupt not heard from him yet though. Helloooo

The ledge that goes back under the reg plate (where it folds back), trim that entire bit out, and also trim about 1/2" under the lower side of the reg plate.

Air flows up underneath and makes a huge difference.
