New front grill, pictures and feed back needed

[s6boy]

Unfortunately I need a new front grill to replace a cracked pepper-pot one. I know Fibreon do one but I can't find a picture of it on a mk1 Tuscan. If anybody has a picture of it or an alternative could you post a picture so I can decide whether to stick with old or go with a new design? TIA John.

Hi John,

This guy ( http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/gassing/profile.asp?h... ) has one on his but his profile picture isnt that clear, he might send you some photos if you ask nicely??, I was going to get one fitted to mine so i asked him where it came from he didn't know as it was on the car when he bought it but I think it came from Fibreon.

Iam just looking for an excuse to get one, need someone to reverse into the front of me Sorry low blow.

Thanks Rob, low but fair. I'll drop him an e-mail. Have you got a new splitter sorted out yet?
Hope you and the misses are well.

Try Surface & Design in Blackpool . I got a MK2 front grill and pair of S spliters for £500 , fitted but un-painted (only primed). http://www.surfaceanddesign.com/
You could try a Mk2 grill or maybe they could get you a pepper pot one or even a custom design .

Hi Dean,

The car is up at Power with Dom, I've not heard from him yet but will find out how it's going tomorrow. No news is good news! It won't be ready until the end of May as it's having a respray after the engine work, just as well no ones bought the Chim yet so I can still hoon for now. :
How's things with you and the Tuscan?

My splitter is a Mk2 one and was fitted by Greg at Newlunn who are now part of Power. They are based over Northampton way but are in the middle of moving from one workshop to another (I believe).

I can give you Gregs mobile number if you want to check details with him. Just PM me and I'll drop you a line.

Thanks Dominic, do you have any cooling issues though as air flow looks like it could be quite restricted with the number plate or do the T2 driving light holes direct air to the radiator?

Hello big man!
I do like the newer style I've got to say, but horses for courses
Have you sorted your wheels out yet? They didn't seem to slow you down too much round Jurby
