Not for me, but it's very interesting considering the price (164 USD Buy it Now)....
It looks like they've had a tool made especially for it. Looks very good quality to be honest.

No need to go to the States and pay £60-£70 shipping costs, you can get a choice here, you may pay a bit more but you at least get it a couple of days after ordering:-

I was planning on doing D4 grille upgrade then saw these but a bit unsure still.
My brother is coming over from USA so was planning on getting him to bring with him to save on delivery costs. I guess if its not suitable I can always sell it on  Defender 300Tdi 110 HCP - Keswick Green

That US one is different to the ones on e-bay.
As Paul says, I also reckon they've tooled up this one.
Look at the sides, they're angled.
Also seems to be bowed at the top.
Must say, I still prefer my own home done conversion over all of them. ...... always on the road less travelled 🚧

What did you use to cut section out of the old grille ?
I have a Dremel tool but unsure if I'll get a nice straight cut across the top as I guess this will be seen. Defender 300Tdi 110 HCP - Keswick Green

A Dremel, attention to the job and a nice steady hand.
