deamon90002004 10 Posted January 20, 2014 hey all, my 91 g60 was up on the ramp today getting tracked, and i noticed a big hole in the front lower grill, i've found one, but it says it's designed for the vr6 part number 535853671J any chance that could fit mine? http://www.arz-tuning.de/shop/product_info.php/language/en/info/p4882_Luftfuehrungsgitter-fuer-Stossstange-vorne-VW-Corrado-ab-Baujahr-ca--8-92.html/cat/106 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deamon90002004 10 Posted January 20, 2014 also found this part number (535 853 671e) which lists g60, where the other part number lists 16v and vr6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 1 Posted January 20, 2014 The early and late front bumpers are slightly different but I'd be really surprised if the lower grille is different too? I'll fire up the parts catalogue and have a look.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 1 Posted January 20, 2014 Hm - seems to confirm it... 535 853 671E for earlier cars.. 535 853 671J for later cars.. You're going to need the E suffix one. Listed as costing approximately £50 on ETKA if you fancy trying your luck at the local VW dealers! :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeypineapplez 0 Posted January 20, 2014 Forgive me if im wrong but as far as Im aware the only difference between the two is that the G60 grill has a few more holes in it to allow extra air flow through and up towards the charger to aid cooling. I have the VR6 grill on my G60 and I simply cut these extra holes out myself. Its very straightforward. Someone with more knowledge can confirm or deny this.

Jim 1 Posted January 20, 2014 Indeed - it might well just be a visual thing rather than a fitment issue but ETKA says that the 'E' part is for 16V and G60, and the J part for 16V and VR6. Which would sort of moot the additional holes for cooling thing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeypineapplez 0 Posted January 20, 2014 Well I just assummed it was for extra cooling as logically thats what vent holes are for. Im sure theres a thread on this already. I vaguely remember reading about it when I first discovered this site. Im afraid I dont care enough to go searching for it now. ;-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dragon green 4 Posted January 20, 2014 I believe the "extra"holes were for the brake ducts ! As the Vr and later 16v didn't have them Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
