Fitted the new ( eBay new) grill today, little bas**rd was so hard to fit though, was there aftermarket ones made or were lotus ones slightly different etc?

Took a fair bit of trimming an bending to make it fit like the original one an the bonnet release was touching the grill unlike my old one🤷🏻‍♂️

I think they are pretty easy to knock and damage. It wouldn't take much to knock out of shape. A small knock , over a big area = hard to fit. 

Looks good  👌

It was fitted to a lotus but had 2 sets of holes drilled in it which the prev owner didn't like so sourced another.

I repaired the holes so from 4ft you can't really see them. 

The edges on this one were about 4-6mm deeper than on my original one so had a small shave 😬

 

My plan is to run it for a while with the painted grill an take photos out an about then compare this winter and see which I prefer,
