Hello guys i currently have the stock Euro Grill for my 2003. Is it possible to get it swapped to the luxury grill?

It wont fit. If you change your bumper to a facelift (06+) bumper then you could fit the grill in question which is a facelift. But take note that preface cars (like yours) has a chrome lip on the bonnet, face lift doesnt. So just image you having the below grill, with an extra lip on top.

Thanks guys. The Euro R grill does look good. Maybe i will consider that!

I am thinking of getting some fog lights installed as well. Anyone knows of any good ones around? :D based in Melbourne. Thanks!

someone on firesport's selling a prefacelift euro R grill.

remember prefacelift and post facelift euro-r grills are different as well

also, regardless which grill you use, the radiator cover place (black plastic stuff) wont fit anymore.

I have a similar issue with my 05 cl9- but mines luxury and has the same grill as yours- that other grill is newer.

I'm going to a nearby electroplater company to get them to put more chrome on my grill.

If it is chrome 03-05 to euro-r 03-05 the radiator cover will fit.

Same with chrome 06-08 to euro-r 06-08.

Interesting, because my 06 was straight swap.
