Is/altezza Grille

[Kent]

New Altezza Grille arrived this morning from Japan. I have done a temporary job with wire to fix the Lexus badge on. Does anybody have any tips on permanent fixing or a different badge perhaps. Heres a quick pic.

nice grill

Try fixing it in place with a couple of dobs of clear silicone sealant and tape it into place with masking tape until the silicone has set (overnight). This will not damage your paintwork.

What a b****y good idea. Thanks Mr Morse.

or even araldite/epoxy resin as you can buy it in halfrauds with a 60 second set time!

Looks nice mate, they make the front end look a lot different, sometimes reminds me a little of the Merc front end, saying that I've got dodgy eyesight and keep mistaking Vauxhalls with the fish emblem for an IS with the sports grille

Where did you get it from mate?

I got it from someone in Japan on eBay. Cost me £65 all in. Here is the link:

That sounds like a bargain mate, can remember these going for well over a tonne!!

hmm.........honestly?

good idea but I don't think the Lexus needs any more chrome... in fact it may look better without the badge? but then it'll be an altezza.... all imo mind :)

[Kazi]

Thats a bloody nice grill their mate! Would look daft with my gold badge though!

Looking good! :)

With Astral Black the chrome is an asset. With most other colours especially the lighter ones, I would probably agree with you.

[Colin P]

looks good Kent, sure i've seen a grille like that somewhere before.....

[Adie]

Looks nice mate :D Very shiney B)

[LowRed]

Looking good on the grille front.....

Leave it debadged, man of mystery :D

[Colin P]

it would look **** if you dont put a badge on it, the bars don't go all the way accross, there's like a diamond cutout in the middle

Unfortunately there is a blank space with two locating holes for the original Altezza badge. It looks odd if you don't put some sort of badge/logo there.

I saw loads of these in Toms TRD in Hong Kong, I have to say I wasn't a fan - bit too bling for me. I stuck with the TRD Aero Grill - out of interest they (Altezza Grill) were going for HK$ 1290 (roughly £95) in Hong Kong, how about Japan??
