Title: New grill
Post by: markos on 30 July 2014, 19:28
word.

i'm looking to change the front to look like this... does anyone know what grill kit this is? i really like how clean it is, especially the silver trim.

Looks like a standard grill with silver instead of red to me can't see the pic properly as it's photoshopped to death

It looks like a grill without the number plate mount (US spec, I believe), with everything sprayed gloss black. That looks like an Edition 30 GTI anyway.

can we get the silver trim as a part or do you think it's been sprayed/vinyled?

You'll have to carefully remove it from your current grill and respray it yourself. Not difficult, but treat it with care as it's very weak.

ok cool thanks, will give that a go. have bought some silver vinyl tape off the bay to wrap it. hoping i won't break the red trim getting it off though as i am a bit heavy handed sometimes!

Bring the grill indoors and get it warm so its less prone to snapping.
