the facelift grill will fit, you just need to cut a bit out where the bonnet catch is to open the bonnet j

Why wouldnt it fit? i have a version 5/6 grille on my car with the pre facelift bonnet and it fitted fine with no mods at all.

Same here dont know if its because mines a RA with an alloy bonnet or not but no modding done to it and it fits like a glove .....a very tight glove but fits none the less.

Yeah, i had to do the same with the grill on my pre-facelift Scooby.

Mine fits ok now, but i need to drop the bonnet from a fair height to get it to close properly.
Really need to get my finger out and get it back on the road at some point lol

It looks as if the facelift grill fits OK with the pre facelift headlights

Anyone confirm this?

Also, any chance of a close up of where the bonnet meets the grill?

Cheers!
