Front grill for the price of a car

I can remember when you could buy at least a whole car for this, and have change for a Chippie Tea.

Maybe he got some hate over the price, now relisted at a still unreasonable £425. These aren't sill plates!

Think I paid 110 for mine but that was probably 5 years ago now.

Description changed from:

"Honda Prelude 5th Gen Honey Comb Grill.
Decent condition
Sold as seen.
No refunds."

to:

"Honda Prelude 5th Gen Front Grill.
Honey comb grill with badge.
Decent condition could do with a clean up.
Sold as seen."

And don't forget that extra £5.32 postage - it really reassures me they will package and post it well with a reputable service and enough insurance for rare/expensive item. I'm not one to bash for spelling, but when listing on ebay, you've got to get it right! Honey Comb Grill sounds quite tasty really. Not sure i'd want one on my car though :lol:

yes honey comb grill im up for that :lol:
not so long ago i sold like new set of 5th gen chrome/stainless sill plates for £125 delivered. then i bought a 5th gen and want a set but im not going to throw silly money at it. i thought £125 delivered was reasonable....honeycomb grille would be about the same.

If you’re looking for more than top dollar, you wouldn’t put

”Do with a clean “

You’d put some elbow grease into it, and make it “ Shine like a diamond in a goat’s **** “
