View Full Version : Honeycomb grill
G'day cobber,
I have just taken delivery of my new Ibiza Tdi 110bhp. It almost looks like a cupra so i was wondering how much it would cost to change the standard (vertical and horizontal) lined grill for the fancy hexaganol one.
and could I fit it myself????
Many thanks
mmmm yes and no really
the centre grill pops in ok , needs slight modification to the bonnet pull lever
outer grilles are joined with a bumper reinforcement beam (plastic) which is melted to the bumper with tabs .
COULD be done , BUT would take a lot of cut and shut as the lower section to the grille that reinforces the bumper is a different thickness on the CUPRA4 bumper . if swappin bumper too not a problem . if changin grille only mmmm yes but not without a fair bit of grief .
i have pics of both the C4 + std if it helps
mail me ill send em for you to look at ??
Thanks flapper,
I think I will have to wait a little while until I can afford to run the real cupra and its thirst.
Thanks again anyway old bean.

What exact modification does the lever need m8?
Any sign of the grill yet flapper?
STILL :rolleyes: on back order along with 3 others i'm afraid :(
ref : modification to bonnet lever , just needs thinning down slightly thats all
Daz,
You mentioned the Cupra4 above, doesn't GARYTDI want an Ibiza grill, not the Leon??
