Difference between 03-05 and 06-08 grill

**JN7** · 03-06-2009 05:38 PM

Hi guys, I am just wondering what the different between these two grills are as in size difference.. (not looks)

Reason I ask is because I am getting a 03-05 front bumper installed onto my 06 and the 03-05 front bumper needs a grill. So I ordered an 03-05 Euro-R Grill but am unsure if it will fit (eg. radiator cover difference, bonnet latch)

the 03-05 grill is smaller than 06-08 grill.
but if u have 03-05 bumper, than u should get 03-05 grill.
y u get 03-05 bumper on 06?
personally, i like 06 bumper better.

thanks for the info. Im getting a mugen front bumper that allows a grill to be installed. but i am not sure whether the 03-05 grill i ordered will fit fine with my 06 (as in do i need a a different type of radiator cover or will my bonnet latch will still be accessible)

Correct me if i am wrong.

But Mugen FRONT bumper?
That should already come with the grill on the bar as a 1 piece.

Just run it without the radiator cover.

yeah, the thing is a found a different type of mugen bar. it allows me to insert a grill. check the other thread for the pics

so hey boys, would an 03-05 fit bumper on an 06 lux? ive heard something about light differences for luxury models

**ummmz** · 11-06-2009 03:46 PM

no it wouldnt. Have you gotten the car back from the panel beaters yet? I'm very eager to see it!

**JN7** · 11-06-2009 03:58 PM

so a pre 06 mugen front bumper wont fit on an 06?

going to see the car next week. grill comes in on tuesday or wednesday so maybe i get it back in 2 weeks?

**ummmz** · 11-06-2009 04:03 PM

Oh sorry my mistake, i miss understood what you wrote.

If the bumper is 03-05 it will fit onto the 06 body. And so you'll need to get the 03-05 grill as well.

I thought you meant will the 05 grill fit onto the 06 bumper.

2 weeks! that's ages, lol. Excited though i bet!
