After-market F/L grilles - any recommendations? (Read 527 times)

tonyyeb Junior Member Offline Posts: 240 Salisbury Gender: Drives: 2000 Elite 3.0 Saloon, 1995 2.5 GLS Estate (no longer, sadly), 2002 Mondeo 1.8 LX	After-market F/L grilles - any recommendations? 23. Mar 2011 at 19:29 I've had a root around on the net for these, as the 'V' in which the Griffin sits is de-laminating on mine. I'm going to get the car repainted this year, and when I do, I'll change the grille too. Any recommendations? I'm not about to pay a kings ransom for an Irmscher; just want something tidy that fits well....

Some of the after market grills look pretty hideous and I must admit I've never been that keen on the Irmcher one either. You could always be a rebel and go for an Opel or Cadillac one

Back to top	the funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it IP Logged
