Having recently acquired a new FFRR (to me) i have noticed that it has an unusual front grille, this grille has not been modified in any way at all, any one seen one like this before

Seen then advertised on flea bay.

Updrade cheat grill.

to the un trained eye at fifty paces you wouldnt tell the difference

The headlight wipers don't fit any more

Pretty good cheat grille though, much better than all those chrome things Discovery 4 HSE

My "old car" is looking mighty fine,however I think whoever you bought it off has spoilt it with that grille IMHO. If you have nothing nice to say,say nothing at all.

There are some dreadful upgrade grilles out there that people spoil their car with, anything with chrome is just wrong IMO, however, if that were my car I would leave as is, it looks like a genuine one and only to the trained eye would you spot it. With the SC side vents too, I think it looks nice and not a bad job.

The only thing that may make me replace it with the original 3 slat type is if the headlight wiper fouled on the grille....does it?  Discovery 4 HSE

I personally like it,

Seems like a cheap way of it looking alot fresher at the front end.

As above tho does it foul the wipers? If you decide to take it off i'll buy it off you! TDV8 HST Sport **Current**

The wipers have been turned slightly on the spindles so that they dont catch!

I dont think it looks to bad, at a distance and at 100mph you wont notice it isnt genuine

Yes, at a really large distance....and also when you're not wearing +5diops glasses

Man, that's a really bad aftermarket part.

There are better aftermarket alternatives than this one but if you like it then thats great.
