There was a thread similar to this on the old info site. Just wanted some info on badgeless grills, I have an Equiss Grill and the fit is terrible, so bad to the point that I broke to clips and cracked the grill just trying to put it on. I've heard that the FK grill is supposed to be better, but it seems a little cheap if it is the better one.
Can people post up pics and experiences with badgeless grills as I'm looking at a replacement once my bonnet gets fitted and skinned next week

Thats the one I've been looking at, but why so cheap in comparison to Ecosse?

I will not argue that you can find most products sold by Ecosse cheaper else where..

Yeah its not me who can't fit the grill, its actually too short on one side so it doesn't fit properly.
Looks like the FK Grill is the best one to go for then
