Altezza Grille Coupe Owners

Just curious well found out today that I am going to need the sedan grille cover to fit it into my car to cover the radiator. Just curious if you guys bought this or left it like it is, or just cut on your coupe OEM grille to get it to fit? If you got the sedan grille cover where did you get it through? Any ideas would be appreciated, the grille is on now but that look when I pull up the hood or look at it annoys me right now.

Thanks

I don't think it'll harm anything if you don't have the radiator/grille cover. It was $18 at the dealership so I got it anyway.

here's another shot.

and yes, its on a coupe. I'd leave it but its clearer this way and keeps dust and other stuff away from the top of the radiator.

mine looks just like capyoda's. the sedan radiator cover isn't necessary, but to me it's nice to have.

You're right Yoda, I do believe there is someone nice out there, just need to know them better. I guess I'll phone around the wreckers.

yeah, I left mine alone cuz Canada sucks, it's like $100+tax for the cover here, so it isn't worth it, but it does look nice.

Yep. It's the gray plastic piece behind the grille and it has the radiator cap sticking up through the hole in it.


I had the Altezza grill on my coupe, with the standard coupe radiator cover with no problems. You may want to try it before you buy the sedan part.

Some don't have it because the coupe radiator cover can't fit the Altezza grill, so they just leave it off or buy the sedan radiator cover.

I'd help you get a sedan radiator cover, but it'll cost more because I live in Hawaii... yup, shipping costs

Yeah the more I look at those photos the more I am glad that I ordered that grill cover. I think it really looks like crap without it, plus I hate to leave that area exposed personally.

i don't know, the body shop installed my grill from tornactive and it fits great. but i'm not about to support tornactive in all their bad customer service, so i'd suggest ANYTHING ELSE.
