Hasn't that grille been lifted from an Audi, oh the indignation

I think it's alright and fits the sporty look the guy's going for. When you consider how much the actual grilles go for on the premium bumper and how hard they are to source, I can't blame him.

Looks like a Audi grille to me

The car's a Cat C, so I guess it needed a new front and they thought that one would do!

I wouldn't touch it with a bargepole. The mileage is understated in the ad, it had issues at last MOT, but got through the same day, despite needing structural welding.

....and the pictures are from last Winter (or before).

Certainly doesn't strike me as a well looked after car, after looking at the MOT history. A lot of silly fails which generally looks like its owned by someone that doesn't give a toss.

Could have been done a lot better methinks, the style isn’t too far away from the premium grille.

It's a proper premium bumper shell, with something grafted on.........badly !

I've a proper one on my drive, in the same drab shade of tarmacadam grey

Drab, not for me today Bob
