To grille or not to grille?

Postby drndrn » Mon Mar 24, 2008 9:40 am

G'day guys,

Just like all your opinion on a little something..

Which do you think looks better on a MY08 2.5i Heritage? The stock chrome grille or a spec B grille?

And anyone with photoshop skills, could you possibly get a pic of a diamond grey 2.5i and chop it up with a Spec B grille just so I can see what it looks like before I buy?

Cheers
Darren.

yes it is.

IMO i think the spec b grille doesnt look as good on "our" bumper (the non spec b) one. but at the end it is all up to you in what you think looks good and what doesnt.

Darren,

I think this was talked about previously and people have posted pics of the MY07+ Diamond Grey Lib with the Spec B grille.

Check out:

Spec B Wgn's posted up a few times.

there is 3 types of front bumpers for the MY07 onwards... the one he has avaliable on the 2.0R(MY07 only, discontinued 08 ), 2.5 (MY07 onwards, includes all specs) and the GT (non spec b ones).

then there is the 3.0R(non spec b) one which gas 'chrome stripes' near the foggies

the there is the one which all of you think he has, but he doesnt, whihc is avaliable on all the spec b versions of the libertys MY07 onwards.

Good stuff! :ok: We should have a 'What If' section for people wondering what a certain part would look like on their specific model year. Someone would then produce pictures or Photoshop it (ie- what if I were to put a Holden SS rear bumper on my MY04 GT?)
