Literally just won this  :jumping:



just ordered this too!  I was thinking badgeless version but I think this slatted gt grille will look really nice with black badge!
hopefully we will get from china before X-mas! hmmm... maybe...

where are you getting the lower center grille?

I might try to keep my open fog lights to show off my front mounted intercooler -  where are you getting your fog lights?

ah that's awesome buddy  :jumping: let's hope they do come before xmas as I'm really liking this new look I going for  :grin:

Not sure as I've not ordered the centre one yet but the fog light grills have been purchased off Andy aka Maxitrol for a very good price as they cost a lot of money brand new  :surprised:

I have the GT grills on my stage 2 ko3 and not long after I changed the grills had a bit of a play with an R32 that wasn't impressed when he couldn't pass me

wow haven't seen you on here since I joined Jan 2015  :surprised:

I don't want to put a spanner in your win win situation but I pissed all over one on the M1 with stock power TBE exhaust hpfp internals and a ramair filter again no map so I'm not surprised he couldn't pass you  :signLOL:

Yes they are gt grills and like gold dust used and luckily Andy had a pair stashed away  :smiley:
I don't I'm afraid but keep on searching breakers yards and a place called Nirro in Essex as that's where I got a few parts from but these guys are rude and not cheap lol

Bit of an update on this grill @croak2012 these idiots from china have done a sly one and saying the parcels been lost already and they don't have any in stock to replace it so do I want my money back  :confused: funny thing is that they are showing 10 available and probably don't want to send this to me as I won a bid for les than the going rate of £60 that they're selling them for on another auction on eBay lol what a stupid twat :slap: I've a right mind to go there and  :fighting2: them in the face for trying those ones on me.

No it doesn't but if you paid full price then I'd reckon you'll see your one soon.
She contacted me so I'm presuming I won't receive mine and will have to opt for a refund.

They've messaged me and said they'll send one as soon as they get more stock so I can't really say or do anything and to add furthe insult they've refunded me £2 without me even mentioning any such thing  :mad:
