eBay bumper grills

[Lyons]

I'm planning on replacing all the grills on the front of the car to freshen it up a bit. There are countless non genuine grills on eBay for £40 odd and open fog light covers for £20.

I know a few folk have got the fog light covers, but has anyone bought a main grill too? Just keen to hear what the quality is like.

Bump. Also quite keen on this. I can get a whole grill setup for £80. The front is rather faded

I've bought both main grill and open fogs. The main grill was an awful match and the fogs were spot on.

Really? Do you have the link for the main grill u used? The one I was looking at was £40 and it's does look good. My front grill is very faded and instead of cleaning it I think it's probably best to just replace.

Thanks

I sprayed my grills as they were faded and it cost me £9 and took an hour... see my thread for the results

Many thanks, let me know when you get it!

No, the one that was about 5 quid dearer did though. It does have pilot "holes" for guiding where to drill the holes though.
