Cry Like A Baby A bit's dropped of my Grill

It seems sometime between me giving the Car a good Polish, on the Saturday evening, and the ERAD meeting on Sunday last, I seem to have lost the third Grill slat down on my lovely Heart shaped centre grill.[]
It's seems incredible that it's worked it's way clear and dropped right out, but it has. Strangely I only just noticed today, but checking the photo's I took at ERAD, sure enough it had gone by then.
I noticed you can buy a whole new grill, but it's a bit pricey, does anyone know if just the slats themselves are available?, or has anybody got a spare grill looking for a new home??.

Re: A bit's dropped of my Grill

Tis a bugger in it....
Not sure what to do, don't fancy forking out £150.00 or so for a new Grill, but it looks daft ATM

ERAD is here
155 meetings

We all got burnt...

Re: A bit's dropped of my Grill

The same slat fell out of my grill a few years ago too. Luckily though, it fell onto the front valance in front of the radiator and was able to retrieve it. Installed the thing back in the grill after squeezing the retaining slots to hold it in a bit tighter.
