Default need help looking for mesh grill for lower bumper of STR 03

Anyone know where I can get a Mesh grill for the lower bumper of my 03' STR? I'm looking for a mesh grill insert that covers both lower fog lights and the bottom middle. Here's a pic of a Jag that has the lower bumper mesh grills including the fog light areas thats what I'm looking for. IF anyone has this on theirs could you direct me where to get it? I searched all over including ebay but they have only the middle mesh insert for the hood and lower bumper but not the fog lights

Thanks

for the 03 you can only get the mesh in the middle. the one your looking at is for the 05 bumper. go to http://www.minagallery.com/jagxp/Sty...erior_page.htm

Default There's an error on thei MINA website

If you're interested in the one for the 05-08 STR then what this link shows is an
accurate picture with an incorrect label. It's the one you get if you click the picture.

Whereas if you click the text associated with that picture you get this which is clearly wrong.

Hey thanks for the update. But Im confused since you and I both have the 03 STR, which mesh grill am I suppose to get. i don't see any for 03's or do I have to get the 05 and up for $175?, Damm $175 for just a mesh grill for the lower middle is not joke , wonder why its soo expensive

So basically since I have a 03 sTR I need to get the 05-08 mesh grill, correct?

I was just pointing out an error on their website which unfortunately confuses things.

You want the single grill kit. Since their website has error(s) I suggest you call them on the telephone and ask which kit number to order.

You might mention the web page error too. I think I saw another one as well.

Regarding the picture you included at the beginning of this thread. That one does have grills that cover the fog lamp openings. They also look to be mounted very close to the front edge. I don't think that's a piece made by MINA. It also might not look so good depending upon how it mounts or maybe it's terrific?

http://www.minagallery.com/jagxp/Jag...sh%20grill.htm This is the 1 for your car. Its made cheap & really not even worth the 175..its cut to size to mounts over the plastic OEM lower grill with zip ties. lol Arden also sells the lower mesh grille that replaces the grille with a nice framed stainless steel grille..a lot better quality with a big price to match. The 1 from Mina gallery is to cheaply made & Arden is way to expensive..i think anyway. http://www.arden.de/aade/produktgrup...23032373d34696

The grilles in your pic look like the set from the factory XS Sport body kit (euro spec only). You might be able to get them from Mina. Since it's a factory kit, there should be some factory part numbers for them, too. They might not fit, though, as the kit adds an air dam lip-spoiler to the bumper. If I find anything else, I'll post up.

I thought I seen what you were asking for on Amazon.com. I was surprised to see anything like car accessories on there, but they are there.

Thanks to all for lending some info about the lower mesh gril. Mina gallery product I heard someone say was cheaply made, is this true? Like anyone who has there product can give their opinion on it for the mesh grill? Throwing down $175 for it is no joke. I still can't find where to get the inserts for the fog lamps.

u can get the fog lamps mesh but u will have to fit a 05 bumper then buy the front body kit that what that guy did in the pic there is a lower spoiler on ebay from arden for your 03 699 that would look great on your car plus why would u want to cover the fog lamps on the str thats what sets it apart from the rest dont buy from minagalley not worth it buy a stainless steel mesh and cut it to fit 50 bucks
