Go to halfords and look in the boy racer section, and they sell Ripspeed grill for chavs to put on their novas, for £21

Buy one which looks like it will protect your radiator. Cut out a rectangle which will fit behind your rad trims, and bobs your unk..

Cut out a second one and sell it on E-bay for £21. then you have broken even.

Cut out a third one to sell on E-bay and you are now in profit..

repeat until bored.. or even sell some on here....

But not worth £109, when you can get almost the same thing from halfords for £21

Errr...

The Hamicad grilles, (both), are £59.

£109 gets you the fender eliminator too.
