I am after a new grill for my MY95 uk turbo. Does anyone know where I can get hold of one that will give a similar look to the updated version (97 on) without replacing the bonnet.

cheers

I think there`s a place called revolution in newcastle, I recall someone posting about them before, perhaps they might have a number and post it here?

 

Yes, I remember their name too. I think I may have the number at home. If I find I'll post.

 

I wanted a better looking grill for my MY96 but I had heard some say that the Revolution grill does not fit too well.

So having got the idea from MarkL I had a go at modifying my existing grill, and it has turned out really well.

This comprised cutting out the centre bar, a bit of filling, then fitting mesh on the back side. You spray the whole lot in Halfords Satin black, and mount the badge on to the grill.

It cost me less than £15, inc mesh and paint.

Looks great.

Sorry have not yet got photos but if you email me I will give more details

 

try drmotorsport.co.uk
they have a grille for early models, looks very good

 

Found the number for Revolution...

0191 477 0785

Hope this help.

Stratman,

Your idea sounds cool. I'd like to see some pics if you get the chance.

 

My 1994 WRX has the Revolution grill - go to 'Private' and look for 'Oustanding WRX for sale' - Mr. Cookie has posted a few pictures you may find interesting before you decide to change yours.

 

OUTSTANDING - oops, liquid lunch !!!!!!!!!!

 

We've actually stopped selling the early grille just now, until the suppliers get their act together and improve the fit and finish.
Stratman, possibly the same problem that you've heard.

 

DRMOTORSPORT,

Can you e-mail me when you star doing the grilles again? Also, do you do MY97+ bonnet vents for pre 97 cars?

Cheers
