Question

If enough people say yes will the price come down? Would be interested if it could be cheaper and would fit a UK 94.

'allo peeps

Had the template made up today and the grille will be made in around 2 weeks time, as soon as I can get a picture on the board i will.

To start with we are going to base the grille on my car (MY97). Apparently the space in the bumper was not changed so it should fit all the models, this will of course be checked in due course.

As for the grille between the headlights, this will be made in a month or so.

Keep the enquireies(sp?)coming.

I'll keep you all posted

Pete,

Yeah the panel will sit there but it's not that exact one, this one is made from top grade stainless steel and has a small border around the edge.

I do like the look of that one, is that your own design?

I like the look of yours, as it were. Is this a homemade job or what? Does it push in from the front or drop in behind? And finally, how do I order mine?!?!?!

I thought you might like to see mine so here's a couple of pictures. Obviously it's not on the car at this point, it fits behind the number plate so that it fills the hole. and whats more it only cost me about £20

Simon,
Yes it is a homemande job, it fixes on behind the number plate, and fills the hole nicely, (at least on my my00) you can't order one cos it took too long to make in order to make any money out of it, I just thought others might like to see what can be done. Mind you I do work with metal for a livin!

I got a call yesterday to tell me that the jig is going to be made up begining of next week.

The cost of £80 is v.reasonable, and you will no doubt agree with me when you see the quality, (bearing in mind the jag grille is around £400 ).

Dear all,

The grille should HOPEFULLY be ready end of next week and then once it's fitted I will post a picture on the bbs.

Thanks for the interest guys.

Expect to hear from me soon!

Hi Ian,
The grille seems to look pretty good. Will there be a matching one for the top grille. Look forward to the pictures.
