for toe boot when you say bad boy it do you mean flush it?

If so the easiest and cheapest way is to buy the new style fibreglass panel and blend it in then back fill the gap with expanding foam and fibreglass the underside (unless it comnes with a blanking plate) - otherwise you'll need to weld it and thats an arse!

The bonnets different coz if you slam the bonnet down, the fibreglass will grack. Most people weld a plate across it then fill it flush

You'll also need to relocate the bonnet release catch so you can open the bonnet

the grille can stop.

all it is is flushed onto the frount of the bonnet to go over the front of the grille, the bonnent release catch needs to be relocated in most cases, or modded to be extended.

there are cheeper options that are modified grilles that give the impression of the bad boy effect. check out the grilles section on
