Why are mesh grills so expensive?

OK i've just been looking around on ebay and they're all around 85 quid?!

why are they so expensive for non sport bumpers?

the mesh itself to buy and make myself would cost a tenner - is it hard to make one?

I've often wondered the same question. I guess its Original parts compared to home made. Not that home made is bad if done nicely.

A quality and finish factor comes into it though. Aftermarket stuff for a tenner looks like chicken fence wire.

It's because people like us waste money on things like that. Don't get me wrong I like 'em but they are over priced.

Very Happy

The one for 85 is a proper SP one though. Zunsport ones are good though.

Zunsport and SP are the same, just the badge. You can ask them to put an SP badge on instead so I have been told, and they will do that for the same price.

I've heard Zunsport make the ones for Peugeot themselves. So they really are exactly the same, just the badges, although you can ask them for an SP one instead as Tom said. I personally prefer the Zunsport badge though.
