Sport Grille

[The Ironist]

Does anyone know if the sport grille (either side of front renault logo) from the latest year 172/182 would fit a 57 campus?

I had one on my 03 standard Clio and it made the front look way better.

Also does anyone know when the last 172/182 were made?

Yes it should fit.

 

[gunner3011]

I ordered an 53 172 grille, the guy at the renault dealership wasn't too confident about it...

They're useless. But yes it will fit fine.

 

[The Ironist]

He also thought they stopped making 172 in 2001.

 

[SC03OTT]

He probably didn't know what a Clio was.

 

[Jon.G]

He probably thought you were talking about a renault cliosport

They don't fit on the campus properly, its hard to explain but basically there's a big bit of plastic in the way stopping it from clipping into place. It will match up fine and won't go anywhere with the bonnet down it just won't sit perfectly flush at the front without some major chopping of plastic or a lot of strong glue. You will have to break a few clips off too.

are you having a laugh?

 

[beng-120]

no, honestly, does not fit, was never designed to fit. the campus front bumper is different to the normal mk2 ph2 bumper.

 

[Bodge!]

Doesn't fit.

Lots of work required.

 

[The Ironist]

Why has everyone told me it will ahhhhhh

Paid £50 or something now!

 

[Jon.G]

Return it?

 

[The Ironist]

un-refundable item

 

[Jon.G]

I actually cant believe it doesnt fit. Pictures of why it doesnt?

 

[Sparky]

Legally you can return it, look up sales of good act 1969... pm me for a sheet of useful info

will get a picture tommorrow of the reason it wont, might be difficult but i can certainly show the difference in thickness of the bottom piece.

I'd change the front bumper anyway, it's f*ck ugly on the campus.

You could probably sell the grille for pretty much what you paid for it, where are you located?

The campus grill looks slightly smaller when I was looking yesterday
