    GOOD LUCK!!!

    No longer available from any MG reproduction parts supplier for a about 10 years now. When they were, they were nearly $1,000.

    I had mine rechromed along with 4 bumper overriders and 2 bumper blades…$1,000 to the local plater for that work!!!

    Glass bead and powder coat is an option?

    As the chrome grill shell is also out of my budget…would it be possible to have tha fiberglass one chromed like they are doing for  plastic moldind or name plate on car  ????

    If he wants $500…BUY IT NOW!!!

    Not sure about chroming fiberglass…there are paints that may get it to look almost like it’s plated.

    I spent the bucks for the re-chroming but in retrospect, a glassbead and powder coat job would have been the way to go with mine.

    You can’t powder coat fiberglass though.

    Andre,

    Glad you were able to get it.  I am trying to work with my fiberglass one.  Doesn’t look as nice as a chrome or powder coated one.

    Hello all, I noticed your post and recently sold a 1951 MG TD. I have a grille (radiator shell) in good condition left over from my project and two sets of slats if you have some interest please feel free to contact me via email sth@herlihy-co.com

    I am happy to discuss these items and other I have for sale. My name is Steve and I live in Boston. Cheers!
