Stunning!

Is the grill the same as one for a 2.4 S ?

If so I may be able to help.

Great work

Likewise I may also have a grille if you get stuck.

Cheers Guys,

The point of the post wasn't merely to highlight my skills at assembling a grill :roll: ...if anyone does have a very, VERY, nice unbleached grill they're willing to part with then please email me with pics and a price ...... darren@swindoncarandvan.co.uk

Many thanks,
