can it be done.

was thinking of buying one with all the mustache & using the internal bonnet release so no one can nick any parts.

anyone done this?

many mods? or what mods?

thanks guys :)

i think the look is not bad either.

a more pricey option.

if there is little mods to do with the other one i might even do that.

i'm confused now.

I got a Morris full slat grill (internal release) from Minisport in Adelaide, Several hundred dollars from memory, but best to check with them!

They look a lot better than the UK mk2 onwards grills IMHO. just need an internal bonnet release (which is also a minispares UK product) and it works well too!

I haven't bought a grill, but I bought 2 stainless steel bumpers and a wiring harness + a whole lot of other stuff last year and it was around $150 postage.

I've just gone and done a test order on the site and it came to 75 pounds including postage which will be around $150 - $160 at the moment. Just email them for a firm quote before you proceed.

Cheers,
Simon

MiniSpares now have a chart on the checkout page (click the button for freight charges)

Postage to 2Kg works on weight and value - Under £10 - £10-£50 - £50-£50-£250 and over £250

over 2kg Express freight goes up by 500G
