My contact no longer has access to a laser cutter. Having now a water jet cutter it makes the manufacture of the grilles non cost effective. I believe Nakatanenga do them in stainless. If enough people are indeed interested pass it all to Brendan....

Anyone got anywhere with the dealer in having these repainted under warranty?

Hi Supacat
I bought a new take off grill from Chris and will get it painted properly myself before fitting. My personal view is to sort it myself rather than the hassle of warranty work that will only last a short time anyway. |

Yes I've had at least one sorted by a dealer in the past but the repair only lasted as long as the original. To do it properly it needs a new grille that is properly etch primed etc. Steve.

Well I think the dealer has agreed to do this under warranty. Vehicle has to go back in for some other work and the service advisor has yet to speak to the paint shop to see the best way of doing it.
I couldn't see a proper way of doing it without drilling out the rivets and separating the grill but didn't think they would go to the hassle of this under warranty, so I removed it myself. It's in quite a sorry state, especially as it's under 2.5 years old: Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Untreated aluminium pressed against the grill frame has created a moisture trap with the resulting white powdered oxidation. So even if the visible paint had been in perfect condition the part would be rotting away unseen. The question then is this beyond economic repair from a main dealer/warranty perspective? Do new grills come unpainted? I've put it back on with some button head stainless bolts - a great improvement over the rivets: Click image to enlarge Admin note: this post has had its images recovered from a money grabbing photo hosting site and reinstated  |
