Got back from Zunsport yesterday, after having my grilles fitted

Peter and his team made me very welcome and I am really pleased with the end result - I think the van looks great

I'll take some better 'after' photos at the weekend

Pictures show before, the existing stone damage to radiator (spent £300 on a new rad earlier this year) and with new grilles

I went for the polished stainless look, rather than black, as I think it suits my van better. Protection & good looks!

Thank you for your feedback & photos - the stainless steel grille does suit your Westfalia very well (y)
It was stone damage costing us a lot of money that prompted us to find a suitable grille & although a while ago we had to do a DIY version for our transit based Chausson we have Zunsports grilles on our car as they already manufactured them for our model & hope to have them on our new PVC too once available.

This is the grille set (in the black finish) of the third Funster who has helped in the development programme so far:

Zunsport are going to continue with this development programme so thank you to everyone who has taken part so far & will update here with what make & models they would like to manufacture grilles for next once known.
It will be great to have these available as a motorhome accessory hopefully for a wide range of makes & models :)

If anyone is thinking of buying any grilles that Zunsport currently list for their car or motorhome then don't forget the Fun discount code - https://www.zunsport.com/en/ 15% discount for Funsters on their whole range with code MH121518 (y)

Big problem on SMART cars too the Aircon Rad gets punctured by stones and costs approx £480 to replace.
Thank you - will pass that on to Zunsport especially as Funsters do like them as a tow car.

Will also be posting a separate thread to see if there is enough interest in grille sets for Smart cars so Zunsport can decide whether to add this to their development programme too.

You could certainly try Zunsport to see what they can do but not likely to be one that they have templates for.
All the motorhome development models for this phase with the offer described have been done now but they can make bespoke grilles for most vehicles & probably quite an expensive option but always worth asking.

Spot our Fun members' discount code published with an article about this development programme in the June issue of MMM magazine - would have been good if Clive had mentioned Motorhome Fun too:

Total cost £30

Good to hear that you found a solution (y) Some models are relatively easy to add a grille & for it to look good (we did on our Transit based motorhome) but for our current car & motorhome that wouldn't have been the case.
