A good condition grille (not to be confused with grill, which is something you cook on) can keep your car looking fresh, while undertaking the task of keeping rocks and other debris out of your fragile engine components. However, a cracked or broken grille will keep your car from looking tip-top, and should be replaced to keep both the aesthetics and the functionality of your front end in check. Over the years, radiator grilles have changed from metal to plastic to aid in production costs, weight savings, and to allow more complicated designs. This inherently makes them more prone to cracking and breaking as time goes on. eEuroparts has a huge selection of different grilles in all shapes and sizes, available in Genuine OE, and direct fit aftermarket.
