Arnett 67 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 So as you do, I got bored and took my front plate off the other day pre snowstorm and it's got this stunning big old grill. Has anyone successfully got the grill "cut outs" filled in so they can place a different type of slim line plate on ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Northern isf 268 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Looking were the mounting holes are you could already fit a much smaller plate if thats what you mean? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Correct, However I'd like to have it offset and flat on the bodywork under the light to show the spindle in all of its glory. Or effectively fully chav it up and just keep it on the window..😂 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ColinBarber 2,096 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Looks like the European and US vehicles have a different part code for that lower grille - I wonder if the US one is filled in and the European one has the cut out for the number plate. 52112-24030 (GRILLE, RADIATOR, LOWER) in US 52112-24040 (GRILLE, RADIATOR, LOWER) in Europe Maybe there is some other difference, I would have thought they all come whole and you need to cut them if required. The GS F and RC F use the same part. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The European one looks pre cut in the part image I've found you can see two sections without the pattern I'll have a look into the American one may be we to make that work. If not, lollisticks & paint let's art attack. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
