MCS chrome grille replacement

[tanchogirl]

I know the MCS has a three slat front grille. Will installing a MC four slat unit cause any problems with the MCS vehicle performance?

[BlueZed]

I would very much doubt it.

No it won't, but did you know that you can now get chrome MCS grilles (that is, 3 slat chrome grilles)?

It's only the older (pre-facelift) chrome grill that has the 4 slats. New Coopers (or Ones/S's with chromeline exterior) now come with the new 3-slat grill:-

Do the "S" three slat ones still have the big red "S" on them?

[Baker]

Err.. there is no big red S on any grilles?

OK, I said a dumb thing, (first time ), I thought you were referring to the little side repeater grills. Nobody said being 63 would be easy.

Ah I suppose we can let you off with that .

Thank you everyone for you responses. I purchased a four slat chrome grille (complete with the attachment backing) on eBay inexpensively. I put it on my new (to me) DS/W 2002 MCS and then had second thoughts. I'll probably go ahead and get the three slat chrome replacement and stash or sell the four slat. I've also added the BMW chrome bonnet scoop. I think that was a really super upgrade! Next I think it is checkered side mirrors to go with the checkered roof. Then....????

The newer 3-slat grill is much nicer I reckon.

I don't like the contoured edge of the older 4-slat one...
