Some of the grills that you see on bugs decklids look like they may even be from an airconditining unit or a part of a grill that belongs in an oven.

That was Renays old transport

Chris Labushagne`s brother bought it and sprayd it from Gold to the gunmetal colour and that grill is from the Speedsters and can get them from Replicars in Benoni I think
Eddy R is/was the new owner of that Oval
