Sorry cant help withwhich one you should purchase for your NB.

I have one on my NA and quality and fitment is first rate, also no increase of water temp at all.

I have never had a problem with anything I have purchased from http://www.mx5parts.co.uk/

Note: \"First Rate\" is a self assesment and is not to be relied upon as your first rate may be very different to my first rate. :D

Hi Waynus
I recently installed a grille from them....was simple to do, took 5 mins. I am really satisfied with it, no change in operating temps, looks good, and seems to be v good quality
This is a 2002 NB, so not sure what part you will need.
Cheers

Second that comment. They are the bees knees (lets see the photo :) )

Made here in Australia by a fellow forum member.

Yup, put the lot on the grill of the Barbie. Should be pretty good :P

You need the NB Mk 2.5 version.

Craig, I'm assuming the Techno grille is the one done by Rob Spargo?
I'm not having any luck contacting him about how to place an order/price, etc...
Any suggestions?


I had a mobile number for him supplied by one of the Victorian members, perhaps one of them can PM it to you. That said you can get them from the MX5 Factory too! 8)

Thanks mate, looks good!

Does it just bolt straight on without any drilling?

Waynus
Yep...undo 2 bolts/washers, put grille in and bolt back up...10 mins tops
Was really impressed with MX5 parts...their bits took 3 days from order...stuff ordered in Australia...2 weeks !!
Cheers

Same, I PM'd him a few months ago, got an initial reply and that was it. I was in no rush for it so haven't followed up. Perhaps he doesn't frequent here anymore? I would like to know more about them as well...

Wayne,

I think Bob's SP has one and Simon has also had one on both his NB and SE, they might be able to point you in the right direction.
