Thread: The New Front Grille

I really like the look of it, eh!!!!

Funnily enough there is a Land Rover factory grille much the same for the Middle East, as it provides more airflow into the radiator.
I cannot find any pics , just this reference

I think the top lip is too thick in relation the total lack of a bottom lip. What does it look like if you turn it upside down?

I do agree, when I first put it on I did notice, but I think once I put a nice tube bar on the front it will look totally different....even REALLY AWESOME

You can't really turn it upside because the bottom lip holds the plastic pieces below the headlights and I don't have a plastic welder to change anything around.

It really does give better airflow, noticeable when going up to our local playground. Normally I hit 95+ degrees up at the top of a very long steep windy road, just hit 90 and the day was hotter with less wind than most days we do go up. I think removing the air-con radiator has had the biggest positive effect.

Ahh. That's the thing! It's missing the tube/bull bar. Once that's on, it will be transformed. I like the cleanliness of the mesh(?) design.

Here's mine hidden behind some small spots!

Good job. With a front bar on it will look much better.

I did a similar job on my Prado, and was considering doing the same on my Disco.
