Hello everyone!


I have a Zeemax bodykit and i am in need of a new grill. Is there a special one i need because of the body kit?

i should also mention i have a quick release fiberglass bonnet above it.

It is for an 87' city E.

This is the one i'm currently looking at: http://www.minisport...fo_8B12507.html


Thanks in advance!

Here's the same style grille from Mini Spares for less:

Pays to shop around :-)

With regards to the body kit, as far as I'm aware it doesn't affect fitting different grilles. Is the bonnet release internal or external?

thats the part number for the external release grille, look for the gap in the top of it for the lever :)

Both would fit, but the Internal release kits are needed for an internal release grille.
