I can't seem to see them for sale anywhere new, which i am guessing that means they have not been reproduced. I find this a bit wierd as they are a simple design and would be far easier to make than a alloy slat one. Is there some reason for this??? Is second hand my only option then? Just tryong to downgrade my little beast back to its simple beginnings.

We were looking for one for my 850 recently, and got a quote to rechrome one we had - ~$300! Luckily it cleaned up good enough without the rechrome. We could've bought a whole new grill for that, although the wrong type. Is there something stopping getting them remade, or is there just not a big enough market? I thought because the early UK Minis had them too that they would've been remade! |

I couldn't find a new one anywhere, ended up having mine rechromed for around $125 |

sorry - all of mine except for 1 are up in the ceiling, and it's more than a little bit difficult to get to at the moment - the one that's on my shelf is a little bit bent, and someone has painted it black over the chrome PM flapper |

Yea thats what i was thinking. So 2nd hand it is then I'm not urgent for one just yet, i still have to take the car into work and repaint it. Just thought i'd start to sort out exactly what i'm gona need. to finish it all.
