Individual Grille Slats - DB9
Discussion
Most annoyingly, the next-to-top slat on my 7-slat grille has disappeared. Whether it's just dropped off or had been liberated by somebody needing one I cannot guess, but these things are both difficult to come by and expensive.
The car now has the aesthetics of a supermodel with her front teeth knocked out.
Maybe I'm just a tight-fisted Yorkshireman, but it does seem silly to replace a whole grille for the sake of one clip-on slat.
As there must be veritable hordes of people out there who have fitted 5 slat grilles to 7 slat cars, and have the remnants of a chipped/bent 7 slat job gathering dust in the garage, does anybody have a no2 slat from a 7 slat grille available, for a fee of course?
Or, for that matter, a full 7 slat grille if needs be . . .

Get hold of Mike at Bamford Rose... They replaced my 7 piece chrome grille with a new DB9 black one so my old one should still be lying around.The car now has the aesthetics of a supermodel with her front teeth knocked out.

Errrr, there is nothing tight-fisted about us Yorkshiremen, We are just fiscally prudent!

Martyn, sorry if I got the wrong end of the stick but when it transpired you were offering a twisted bit of metal from a different grille on a different model car to the title, the impression was that you were taking the p.
This exchange between you and Martyn is hilarious.Gassing Station | Aston Martin | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
