I think it depends on the cars colour, personally I do like the HST grill, but prefer the original one on my car Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis |

Maybe it is just the fun to modify things but my guess it is that it desire to look different from the crowd, which could be caused by an inferior complex . However I quite like the HST grill , but won’t be fitting one on my HSE, as nobody here would notice the difference any way 2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.

Like Chris, i fitted the sports kit myself, starting with the grill Fairly straight forward, and you don't have to be that tidy when cutting the old grill out as the new grill fits inside the nice big whole you make!

[quote="hoju"]I have a question. Why would anyone spend time and money to have that grille? It looks so much worse to me!

Do not want to change the grille on my SE auto but need to access the area behind it so we can fit an electronic two tone sounder to warn all the dozy rally spectators that we are coming through as we nearly hit one on The Cambrian rally in Penmachno forest last month. T

I fitted this to mine, it was very easy as described. I like the old grill but fitted the sports one to be different, I think it is a nice change to have one without the rest of the sport styling pack.

Nothing wrong with the HST grill, looks much better than the original thing. |
