wont be anything alike if its a fibreglass grille from the protege you may be able to add to it/modify it to suit but if its a stock plastic one i wouldnt bother even looking at it

You are forgetting about shipping charges and agent fees, it'll be over $100 easily once it arrives in oz.

A $15 music CD from Japan costs $50 in shipping/agent fees. I know, I asked the question on something I wanted before.

wont fit bud!!! easier to buy another grille and modify that! or take mould of yours and make one out of fiberglass and change it until you like it...

If you have a welder, some extra metal coat hangers, and some basic fiberglass skills, you can probably fab something to your tastes?

I'm thinking just bend the hangers to the shape/s you like and tack weld them together. then just lay fibregalss over the wireframes. Sand the hell out of it 'til your happy and paint. Or you can just use the first as a prototype to make a mold and a proper fiberglass copy.

IDK. Just throwing some ideas out there. I thought about trying this myself but thankfully Dan was able to score me a kouki MS grill. Much less work.
