Its had a Facelift grill fitted but the upper mounts are missing and its hanging off by the two support bars. Huge gap between bonnet + gril etc. Also chrome insert attachments broken so its loose and rattles.
Made some brackets up myself which will do for now but are not very satisfactory.

Would yours do for parts? plastic? surround?
I'll do you a swap, standard grill for whats left of yours in case my facelift one gets broken (as my bumper did) 
do you need the two brackets as well?

yes it would probably. The chrome insert, although intact, does not fit very well and the little clips that lock it into the grill are mostly all broken.
The rest of the grill surround is painted in Astor Grey too.
I have uploaded some pics so you can see for yourself.

L.O.C. you are missing the bracket which changes the fixing holes on the bonnet to match the new facelift grille. Whoever has fitted the grille obviously forgot to buy one! The chrome surrounds on the facelift grilles nearly always come loose as they are plastic welded into position. This can be sorted easily enough (I did it on my old red S reg) with some two pack epoxy from B&Q!!

ok thanks for the info Baz
I would prob still swap with you if u dont mind tho Hilander as i dont mind the old grill so its neither here nor there for me if u want this one for spares?
Other parts i needed are sunroof assembly (tracks, glass, cables, the lot), heated seat stuff.
Have PM you
