I can honestly say I have never seen one like that!

Someone else on here will tell you. Have you tried EBay?

 

[jase]

I've got one
Real carbon fibre ftw
Need to be bonded in.

 

[197_stu]

no havnt tried ebay yet,

jase where did you get yours from? or is it custom made?

 

[chappo]

their was one for sale on here a while back.

 

[jase]

They were made by a friend/member.
Only about 3 were made. He had 1, I had 1 and the other is in the pic.

Mine is kind of for sale but have so many people wanting it that I don't know the fairest way to sell it.

 

[197_stu]

ahh fair enuf auction it? if not just sell it to me lol.

think more of them need to be made.

 

[Keil]

[197_stu]

Id like both grills to look like that! it looks so aggressive!

couldnt you cut the original grills and sand them down to get the smooth finish, have it painted and that way at least you'd have clips to attach them in.

made mine myself, using a standard mk 3 grill, by cutting the back off and fitting it with some rubber matting to tidy up behind the grill.

The standard sport grills have oo many slats too close to the front edge.
As Ryan said, best grill to use is the standard none sport Clio grill.

 

[197_stu]

is it easy to do then rayn?

 

[ryan197]

[neil]

the ex-owner of the car pictured had a progress thread that mentions the intake and grille, he says the grille is a renaultsport one? seen here http://clio197.net/forum/showthread.php?t=3807&page=5

 

[jase]

He had the replacement metal lower front grill that Renault do.
But the one we are on about is the top gril.
