Quite like that, whether it'll look as good on a non-bodykitted car, I don't know

what's your opinion on this or shall i stop being tight a buy a genuine imsher grill

It depends what you want. If Irmscher is your thing then search the world for one.
If not, get one of the ones from that eBay site

I think that those sort are fine - they are badgeless, robust and fit the car.

Dam site cheaper than Irmscher plastic too!

Personally I don't like the metal grills....I think they look tacky, but each to their own.

Have a look on Ebay Germany.  The ones with the blue surround ad look great in my opinion. I have one.

seen those fitted to F/L's they look cheap and nasty really  :(

Mesh is thin, and you can easily see washer bottle, go for the Imersher grille if you want a change. But for me, a grille is a grille

I'd keep it original and go for the Irmscher (assuming that is what is fitted as standard).  I have a 3.0 Elite (V-reg - 1999) and it has the Vauxhall V-grille but it is also an Irmscher part.  £55 seems a bit steep for a non-original grille - not sure what the quality will be like.  Also, if your car isn't black it might not blend in as well as the one on Ebay.

It depends really on whether your into the 'modded look' or prefer the 'keep it original' look.
