But you can achieve a pretty similar result by de-badging the original for zero pennies.

Not quite - it does look a hell of a lot better without the V, but then all you see is the chicken wire underneath. Not great - having a DB7 type grill makes the front end of the car look much chunkier.
So there

But note that that piccie is of the "Funster" with additional air intakes and lips on the front which obviously add a lot to the overall visual effect.You can find more pix of the Steinmetz girll and the demounted
original one here:
If "chicken wire" was good enough for Blower Bentleys and is still good enough for XKR's, etc, then, personally, I can live with it.
Bin the VX/Opel nonsense and counteract bland look with substitute of your choice.
