No, it's a chrome AU2 forte grille sold on ebay not so long ago. Looks OK, but not on my car!

Looks really good.

Height is fine IMO.

im planning on lowering it 1 1/2 inches more. also to color code the body moldings and the back of the mirrors. it is dark blue. i was looking at going a ts50 kit but i thought because you cant get a rear bar it doesn't really tie in that well. cheers

Looks nice mate, which is a rare thing to say about an AU wagon! Only other things I'd personally do externally is paint the outside grill surrounds (as suggested above), lower it a little (particularly at the rear) and get some of the metal/chrome intech badges which will sit just under the side repeaters, in line with the body moulds. To me, they always look a little bare without either the badge/sticker in that spot.
