Hey guys,
I'm looking to replace the stock front grille of my car, I like this design:

Does anyone know where I could get something similar to this or how I would go about it?
Cheers, Mark

Eyecon has something similar (He is very approachable) so maybe send him a PM :mrgreen:
-
if you ebay it you should find them,
however the look you wish from that picture is actualy an aftermarket front bumper, looks great, especially with the fog lights.
Not sure were you could sourceit from however, or what the cost would be
-
Yeah I understand it's part of the front bumper, just kind of want that look though without having to replace the whole bumper, just some sort of modification to the grille.
Having a hard time trying to find something similar :evil:

An MS Design grill like mine might suit your needs osmesis.

Now I just need to convince the wife that I need it... I also found a lot of other things on there I want too haha (black bezel LED head/tail lights).
Thanks guys

Don't you hate that... :rolleyes:

Yeah, that's life though.
Hmm, I just wondered would those bezel led lights be legal in Australia? I'm reading conflicting responses on other forums.

Can't see why they wouldn't be...

Ditto. In fact they're next on my to do list. But I won't be getting them through Koreanautoimports. Too expensive. Jeez why tell the wife anyway. Man, I had changed to SLX rims a few months ago and she still hadn't noticed. Do you really think a woman would notice the headlights, especially the tail lights. If my missus knew what I was spending on the car I'd be given that silent treatment. Surely you can work out a way. :winker:

I reckon my m8 has spent about A$10,000 on his Skoda Octavia in upgrades (Most of which he has hidden from his wife) Brave or Stupid .. not sure which :sweating:

Hahaha, yeah I wouldn't want to tell her. But she gets home from work before me and she'll most likely ask me what is in those mysterious parcels that arrived. Where abouts will you be getting the lights from - hi-motors.com?
-
Can't you have the parcels delivered to your place of work? :winker:
-
Hi motors have a couple of versions, but the one I want only comes in LEDs and wiring only, and not the fully assembled light clusters. However sharkracing do, and that's where I'll be going. I couldn't be bothered trying to separate the lights myself.

This is true... good thinking
