Cracking idea with the brace. Remember working on a R33 Skyline GTR bumper once, found a piece of bloody wood in place acting as a brace to stop the flex from a previous damage

I know its a small detal, but the grille is missing the vertical supports. Either need to get rid of the rest or add in new ones imo
