Hi All,

Simple question.. which of these grills do you prefer I can't decide!):

Original:


SA Style:


I now have smoked indicators and it is currently wearing the SA grill.

Cheers,
Stu

I prefer the standard (narrow) one.
I never understand why people are prepared to pay a fortune for these long lower grills, you can get the same look by paint the inset area matt black.

Fortunately, mine was free as was given it by a friend, but I am definitely leaning in favour of the original. Thanks for the input

I love the original look on the T3, but in this case I think the wider grill wins out. It looks the part, nice looking van by the way

Is it me or does the narrower grill makes the van look happy go lucky and the wider grill makes it look slightly depressed, I would worry that it might feel one day that it couldnt be bothered to move

Oh and I prefer the depressed look,

I like the SA one, i had one on mine until recently.. Removed it to fit some projekt two type lights, which give the same sort of look

I prefer the SA grill, but thats because I have one on mine, smoked indicators help too

I like the original narrow one with the round single headlight grille. I think the SA one looks better with square or twin round headlamp SA grilles.

I saw this thread earlier and I couldn't make my mind up, but I think 'trucker' has hit the nail on the head.

Also the SA seems to give it a wider lower stance. Strange but it also looks a fraction further away Oh it is

I prefer the original lower grille with the round headlights, just seems to work better as a combination .

As said the SA one looks better with the rectangle headlights

I agree, the original looks better on YOUR van. Now, how much did you say you wanted to sell the SA for?????????

I reckon the longer grill would look better on my van and you can have my standard one as an spare

Sorry - the mate that gave it to me now has a Bluestar so will be having it back to put on there!

I agree that the wide grill suits the square lamps so am rdverting to standard I think.

Wide grill for big bumpers and square lights...narrow grill for steel bumpers and round lights.

If you decide against it, I'm in the market for an SA grill.
