Plenty of the D4 V2 style grills on ebay that are specially made to fit straight on the early D4s without having to change bumpers etc.

I bought a gloss black one and looks great and a perfect fit

So I ordered my grill from es performance on ebay, the quality of the item is truly amazing for the price, pics coming soon, only very small issue is the the space for the LR badge is less than 70 mm, is this because RR grill badges are smaller than D4 ones ?

in my opinion at least, new grill integrates much better with light cluster and black section in lower bumper

Powerful.co.uk do the full Range of D4 combinations of colour trim & mesh. I have bought many and they are good quality and fit perfectly.



They also do a D3 range...




PS: I have to say the one on the white D4 a few posts above looks to have squarer corners and more upright sides than those I have seen. Its the less upright side angles and rounded corners that make it look more 2014+
