Front grill

Hi

Dose anybody know if the front seat grill on the new 11 plate Leons will fit on my 07 plate Leon, I am wanting to change it as the facelift one looks much better?

Thanks

i have a MY11 FR leon with a pre-FL grill from a Cupra, as it was a mistake with the BTCC kit at the dealers when i bought it, wont complain though, its sort of unique i guess, but that the opposite way to where your going but the principle applies

The facelift grill won't fit non facelift cars. Different shape

 

[GrahamFR]

then how does mine work?

 

[dannychapman10]

Do you have a BTCC front bumper Graham?

The Face Lift FR grill is smaller than the older FR Leon's Grill wise. Not sure on the Models below the FR, EG Sport SE S etc.
Only the FR, Cupra and Cupra R get the honeycomb grills by the look of it as well.

Hope that helps. Or doesn't as the case maybe!

Only thing i do know is that the FaceLift Cupra Grill fits the Facelift FR, as i have changed this on mine.

Cheers

yes i do, i take it thats the reason, because the bumper is different?

 

[dannychapman10]

FL grills won't fit Non-FL bumpers BUT Non-FL grills will fit the BTCC bumper which can be applied to any Leon

 

[GrahamFR]

so if you buy any FL BTCC kit leon, do you get the Pre-fl grill?

 

[dannychapman10]

Yup, as they didn't change the size of the hole to fit it in

 

[GrahamFR]

oh, i thought they had different grills, the honeycomb ones? well there goes my fabled unique'ness

 

[dannychapman10]

Graham, your car is unique, and it makes me wish I'd gone for Black Cupra rather then Silver haha
