I don't suppose any of the cars were starlight silver?!

I was also wondering if anyone knows of a good breakers around the Hertfordshire area, I'm in need of a few bits but would like to remove them myself ideally!

I went into my scrap dealer in Barnstaple wanting a couple of trim bits... there was an Xpower ZT there. It had MG7 lights... and xenons... I asked how much for both, he said £100. I had a close look at the car, it had powerfolds and an HK sound system, The man said if I took the mirrors of myself I could have the lot for £135. I said you don't mind if I strip out the looms from the doors and take out the speakers from them, he just said help yourself....so I did, with the sub box.. I think I got a bargain :-)

I still like your mesh grill to be honest, I am planning on making one up so I can keep the chrome one for special occasions.

Thanks Bob

I'll be making another mesh grille soon. Got a very nice freebie grille recently from a member and I've got some mesh left from doing my first one. There'll be a nice shiny club grille badge as well as a Viking on this one.

Chad.

Well done m8 - chrome grille was a good find

Only the other day I myself found not 1 but 2 BMW walnut gearknobs in my local yard

Easily removed + cost next to nowt

Then I am also in that club... Full chrome grill does look good

I got mine on Ebay a few years back for nearly nothing. I guess the seller was not aware of what he sold me

I,ve got 2 mesh grills, but I definitely prefer this one
