Just seen this on eBay, anyone purchased this kit before and know if its any good?

Price seems a bit to good to be true in my opinion!  :smiley:

If its too good to be true it usually is:-
GRP (glass fiber reinforced plastic)  :lipsrsealed:

Its a good price, but because its made of GRP its cheaper to make than ABS plastic.

the guy i take my car too tells me this, he hasnt let me down on the car at all but dont know if he told me is just hearsay so dont take it to heart BUT they are near enough a perfect fit and the latest purchase he made fits the gen grills quite well BUT like i say this is just what hes been told by customers and suppliers and therefore sending the information onto me...a bit chinese wispers but if it fits it fits
