Front Grilles

[StageaNut]

Hi guys,

New to the site and stageas too, firstly - fantastic wealth of information you all have collated here - its a credit to you.

Secondly, despite searching I cant find ANYWHERE that supplies different front grilles for the series 1 RS4. I am due to get a stagea soon and I just really dont like the front grille.

Can anyone show me websites or more importantly direct me to a contact that has aftermarket grilles?

Im in the UK if that makes a difference and would love to see some pics!

Thanks all!

check out takeros(.co.jp I think - try a google search) and Masa motorsports (once again not sure of the exact site name). There will be others - just make sure when you search, you use WGNC34 and "body kit' or 'front grille' or 'face' etc when you search.

Give it a few hours, and the guys on here will have a heap of replies with more detailed info than I can provide!

Fantastic - I just think the new grille will massively improve the look of the car.

I also want some clear repeaters for the front and side - can anyone help with that?

Thanks again!

i have only seen the turbo grill, NA grill and dolphin grill.. or you can customize the standard one by painting it black, removing the logo/s etc

yeah - what sort of grill do you want exactly? Do a search on yahoo japan and have a look to get some ideas about what is out there. As for the indicators, the front ones are exactly the same as the nissan maxima (use the search function for "clear indicators" ) and the side repeaters are the same as a LOT of different vehicles. I have seen everything from Pulsars to commodores (4 door vauxall monaro to you lads in Pomgolia) you are pretty much only limited to what you can wire in and what will fit in the hole, but there isn't a lot of difference between cars. My choice is the N16 pulsar ones tho.

Thanks for the info on the repeaters

Thats wierd - why would the car have an NA grille when it has a turbo engine!! hmmmm

[Stinky Rooster]

well, mine had a turbo grill with an NA motor (originally)

Its just one of those personal taste things I suppose. There are a few RS Four owners here in Aus that want to put NA grills on.......

[StageaNut]

Different strokes and all that I guess

What does the turbo one look like?

[ant0ny]

what you have - std NA spec grill

what you want - Dolphin

That is the same grill on my 25tXFour turbo and 4WD.

Turbo grille

I also would like a dolphin replacement

If enough people are interested, would it be possible to do a dolphin group buy or something? Where can you get them from anyway?

Fancy a swap when i get the car then?

Each of us pay for our own postage?

[-FUZZY-]

If you weren't on the other side of the world l'd def be interested in swapping grills!!

Hey fuzzy, you should consider it, the postage isn't that bad.... might be way cheaper than trying to find one here or in Japan. Especially if you two swap!

PS I like the NA grill too...I have the Dolphin..... it is one BIG hole..... and no badge fits!!

+1

I have the turbo grille

the NA grill looks best

Dolphin grille sucks arse IMHO (looks de-ghey with all the bits showing, such as radiator, auto oil cooler (aftermarket), horn(s), radiator air guide (aftermarket))

Id rather NOT see all those bits from the front with the Dolphin grille

lol
