First up i have this pair of front clam louvres going, they need fibreglassing into the vx220 clam, i had a spare set as im on my second front clam so Ive hacked these out of my original clam.

£100 (Similar vents are around £250 from Europe.) These have been sat in my garage on the clam since last March and im having a clear out.

Heres an idea of how they look fitted...

Next we have a custom VX220 grill bar, I made this in my spare time from the bits remaining of my old clam, its basically the silver V without the V part lol, I know a lot of people like the mystery the VX220's bring to bystanders, so i guess this is an ideal way of keeping the car fairly OEM but loosing the Griffin. Also the mouth looks very large without the V so this breaks up the front end nicely.

Its painted factory silver...

...but its no hardship if anyone wanted to go for black

...or even colour coded to change the look of the front end.

Im not sure how much to ask for this, as its a complete one off and i know theres not many grill options for the VX220! Its also taken me a bit of time to do, so PM with an offer :)

I could also make them robin but i was worried about the original company who sells them, seemed a little unfair on their design although £250+ is extortianate. These were a one off set i had left from my old clam so they need to be put to good use :) Your call though.

£250 is a total rip off i dont know how they can charge so much, £100 is the right price imo
