Hi all,
I’m in need of a MK1 grille as mine has disappeared off the front of the car!
Been looking on MX5 parts and seen a few around the £60 mark then went on Fleabay and saw this:

Is it a cheap rubbish one or does it look alright? Don’t want to put anything rubbish on my beloved.
By the way MX5Parts are also on Fleabay and do auctions on some of thier stock, so the next time you need something, before you go to thier website check Fleabay first! [;)]

There are a few grills on Ebay right now. Some plain & some with “ROADSTER” OR “MX-5” on them. They usually go for about £20.
Will probably go for one of these sometime & sell my plain one.

Are you any good at DIY? If you are you could make yourself one for no more than a tenner, and to your own design. the only tools you need are an electric drill, with a drill stand if possible,drill bits, a jig saw, a small selection of files and a lot of patience.
Sadly I’m not but that grille is very good! Do you fancy making one for me? Just kidding, but it is very good… Just don’t want to get one that will ruin my car during fitting or rust to nothing. And it seemed cheap so was concerned.
Sadly (for everyone else), he only makes them for the extremely lucky few. I am one of the chosen ones:
and how it should look fitted (this is a photoshop):
