THE MONKEY WAREHOUSE ADVANTAGE

• 20 Years of Composite Heritage: Hand-crafted by experts with two decades of experience in the Australian automotive aero industry.
• 100% Brisbane Made: Proudly manufactured at our Coopers Plains workshop. Thank you for supporting Australian manufacturing!

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

This is a high-quality aftermarket FRP component. For a professional finish, the following workflow is required:

• Pre-fitting: Always test-fit the grille to the front bumper "dry" before any modification, sanding, or painting to check alignment with the factory mounting points.
• Professional Adjustment: Minor sanding or trimming may be required to achieve a perfect flush fit.
• Preparation: Requires professional sanding and priming before painting to match your vehicle paint code.
• Expert Fitment: We strongly recommend installation by a qualified body shop experienced in FRP products to ensure a professional finish.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Does this replace the whole bumper?
No, this is a grille insert designed to replace or fit within the factory grille location. It is lighter than factory plastic and much more durable.

What is the difference between Hand Laid and Chopper Gun?
Chopper guns spray random glass strands, leading to brittle sections. Our Hand Laid process manually layers glass mats, ensuring a better resin-to-glass ratio and higher impact resistance.

Does it come painted?
No. It arrives in a raw gel-coat finish. It requires standard preparation, priming, and painting by a professional to match your vehicle perfectly.
