it's easier than you think... surprised no-one else had done it already
just took me a while to find a pre-made grill the right size
the grill is from a nissan 350Z... you should be able to find
one brand new on ebay for about $150...
it's a little larger and the curve is slightly off... but it's a pretty good match

just got the panel shop to straighten it a little, trim it to size and
make a few mounting brackets then fit it... EASY!!!
if you've got the right tools you could probably do it yourself
makes a HUGE improvement to the stock front bar :wink:
great value for money mod!!!!!

    nice one dude. Ive actually seen that grill from a 350Z. It does make it look very Aston style 8)
    its great to see what fine example you have kept the car in. It looks so much better than all the FTOs I see on the road. Most of them just look hacked.
    But maybe on just biased :P

    btw does the hole in the skirt actually feed the rear wheel or is it just there for the sake of being there?
