Alfa Romeo Manual Cadamuro Grill

1 - Remove the six screws as indicated in the picture, using a philips-head screwdriver

2 - Use a open-end wrench nr.10 to remove the 5 nuts as indicated in the above picture and use a open-end wrench nr. 8 to removed te last nut in the big yellow circle: now you can removed the "Old Alfa Heart"

3 - Remove the 6 clips from the front bumper.

4 - Slightly bend the 4 lips downwards to make sure that the "New Cadamuro Grill" will nicely fit on the original bumper

5 - Next step is to put the new Cadamuro Grill temporarily into place, to see how it fits.Also see if the hart is in the centre of the front bumper, this is very important. It may occur that the space between the right and left headlight is not evenly distributed. You can correct this by adjusting the headlights.

6 - Take some adhesive tape and stick it over the 4 lips. Now put back the grill in place and mark the inner edge on the adhesive tape. The yellow arrows indicate the mounting holes, the blue arrows indicate the marks of the inner edge of the grill. Measure the distance between the holes and the marks on the tape. This is the exact distance from the edge of the grill to the hole, which should be drilled in the grill. Use now a 3mm drill, after that a 8mm drill, so that we have some "space" to make sure that the "Cadamuro Grill" fits well.

7 - Place the included black sticker in the lower edge of the hart. After that, place the chrome bars in position and mount these with the the supplied philips-head.

8 - Now you can turn on the 2 8mm bolts into the chrome bar.

9 - The holes are drilled, you can mount the Cadamuro Grill with the original Philips-heads.

10 - Put the included protective tape on the inside of the bonnet, to avoid any damage to the grill.

11 - Now cut and bend the supplied black mesh into shape and glue it on the inside of the grill. The silicon glue is also supplied with the Cadamuro Grill.

12 - We want to use the original Emblem, which is still in the old chrome heart: unscrew the 8 mm nut, which is just above the middle of the chrome heart, and bend the 4 indicated lips to the outside. This should losen the chrome heart from the plastic housing.

13 - You can see that we have removed the Emblem without damages. You can manage this by using a hammer and hit carefully on the two little pins on the back of the Emblem.

14 - Break off the two pins from the Emblem and remove to black adhesive tape. You can glue the original Emblem on the Cadamuro Grill by using some silicon glue. Make sure you put it in correctly (i.e. not twisted).

15 - If all went well, the new Cadamuro Grill falls nicely into place. Now, check if the bonnet closes well. If this is not the case, try to adjust the locking mechanism by losen the 3 nuts on the mechanism. Just losen the nuts a little bit, that would do the job.

16 - Finally, we attach the heart onto the original bumper by using the supplied parker. However, you might use a parker which can be camouflaged by using a black plug.
