Verve Grille

[ebv8]

has anyone seen or made a Verve grille for the mk7?
i want to replace my stock grille with something different as the black plastic looks a bit cheap.
the yanks can get a stainless grille insert but won't fit the euro bumper
and i was thinking even to buy some bentley style steel mesh and make my own grille but the mesh is about $200 a sheet and then needs to be curved and mounted and i don't have the skills

The Verve was the concept car for the European Fiesta - it never went in to production.

yes i know that otherwise i could walk into ford and buy one
but I would like to know if that are made in the after market as the US models can get a billet style grille for theirs but we can only get ugly plastic ones for the euro models
I have a base model so my only options are to get a chrome trim around the outside of the grille or fit the aussie zetec grille.

Has a little google to try and find this Verve grille but am unable to find it anywhere was thinking of changing my grill, possibly to the Asian grill, but i am wondering is there any alternatives out there, as it seems the only ones availble are the standard one and the asian one?

Make a metal one yourself just buy some grill halfords do sheets of it then incorporate it into the old one

thats true, may have a go as trying to design one myself, be unique and all that!

Unique is key. Have thought about doing it myself but I think it will look like a crashed car if I did it lol
