Grille with a little twist....

craigmbarratt · 14th October 2012, 15:52

After a conversation with Cox's I bought their last NHB sprayed sports grille.
With mine being a 2.2 Sport I've been searching for a genuine Sport badge to no avail. I opted for an EP3 badge and here is the result. No red badge as mine isn't an "R". I'm happy with the result.

Yes, she's dirty !

Close up....

Looks good mate good idea aswell with the sport badge

Same style at the R and S but a 2nd look required when glancing at the front. I'm after a sheep in wolfs clothing look. Not in your face as I think the thoroughbreds should be.

Good idea! I had an old shape Sport before and sadly broke the badge removing it from the boot!
Oh and its EP2 by the way, the 1.6 Sport.

Looks really nice glad to see not everyone try's to dress their civ up as an R when's its not

I don't understand the fascination either Rich. If you want a car that looks like an R, buy one.

Never a truer word spoken, I can understand not wanting the running cost of a R but wanting the style of one but the one thing that annoys me more then anything is type r badges on civic's that are clearly not R's oh and type R seats in any thing other then a type R (rant over)
