Bird strike to front plastic grill

[Oceansplasher]

Hi guys.

Yesterday a pigeon flew straight at my car and hit hard the plastic front grill on a 65 plate mk3 Leon FR.

Has cracked it in a few places and I'd like to change it out. Can anyone advise a part number to order and who to order through? How much can I expect to pay for one? Looks pretty straight forward to change out as only a couple of screws I think.

needless to say, the damn pigeon was dragged under the car and came out from underneath the rear end with a lot of feathers flying everywhere and it didn't look healthy!!

Oemvag.es are a good source for parts. I've bought new genuine grills from there. Took about 3 days for the parts to arrive to the UK too.

Had a grouse go through my grille a couple of years ago. Main dealer charged over £400 to replace.

I'm after a new grill aswell, my own fault, not a bird.

Is the cupra grille on oemvag.es compatible with FR?

Can't see a fr grill listed.
