Construction & Design

This grille is crafted from premium stainless steel, chosen for its excellent resistance to rust and corrosion, ensuring long-lasting durability even in harsh weather conditions.

The mesh pattern is engineered to balance airflow with protection, allowing ample air to reach the radiator while blocking harmful debris. The overlay design allows for a straightforward installation process without the need for cutting or drilling into the vehicle’s bodywork.

Performance & Sound
