Fletch76 Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Yes. Gates in Harlow. Not sure where you're based, but can't be much difference in price from dealerships? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oliverb Posted November 28, 2013 Author Share Posted November 28, 2013 sorry while you are responding, was it easy to fit with regards to the bonnet lock mechanism ? i know some people have broke it by doing it i think something to do with the spring !?

Fletch76 Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Yeah me too. I only bought one because it was a surprisingly affordable mod.I only found out because of TDCI'S grill change guide. I think that's where I got the part number from. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fletch76 Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I haven't fitted it yet lol!! I'm waiting to buy the bottom grill - I'm going to try and mod it to fit. If I can't will probably sell the upper grill as I went them (style wise) to match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fletch76 Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 The only thing I can suggest is the guide that I mentioned above. It's pretty comprehensive and very easy to understand. Of course weather there's any problems when fitting is another matter :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TDCiST Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Oli, do it!! You won't regret it! Such a cheap and easy mod and makes the front end look sooooo much better!! Have u painted the bonnet lip too yet? That completes the look! I've done guides for both! Hopefully over Xmas I will be looking at trying the ST lower grille mod also...

TDCiST Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 If your gentle you won't... But buying another is always useful, free from any stone chips, scratches etc... And new sticky pads!!

Fletch76 Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Did I read somewhere that it's recommended to use a hair dryer to warm up the sticky pads so the lop is easier to remove? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoney871 Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Compared to the RS grilles the ST ones are cheap, Just looked on Microcat and a RS upper grille is £174 and the lower is £420!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
