Thought i'd finally do the front bumper black out 2day after receiving my vinyl kit and been sitting there for awhile now. Taking off the upper grille was a task, esp the clips.

Failed my blackout project! wrinkles on the vinyl and broke a clip on the grille!!

you don't HAVE to remove anything to blackout...mitsu sell clips anyway so dw 'bout it...I knew that they sell interior panel clips for $2.55 each ..

Hi Alex,
Firstly don't worry about the clips...just go to a Mitsu dealer and its sorted.
Now regarding wrinkles...did you try wet or dry method?
I would highly recommend the 'wet' method...it is very forgiving...and once you have the vinyl in place...and squeegeed the water out...just go over it with a heat gun/hair dryer...and wallla!! Wrinkles gone!

Hey guys, i took out the top grille which the mitsubishi sign is attachced to so that i could fold the left over vinyl into the gap between the bumper and the grille.

I think there are 4 clips/latch in total on the back of the grille. So i broke one, but i think it wont be a big prob since theres 4 screws that holds the grille to the bumper.

i used the wet method with soapy water and also used a hairdryer. But i think its just me being clumsy. Now that i look at the job, could barely tell its dodgy.

btw guys, any1 knows where i could get the XDC kit includes paint job? I only found a link on ebay, its like $650 minus shipping and paint jobs.

really dig the PMR mods!!
