I have one of the cheapest £30 debadge ebay grills and you can remove the red stripe and change or paint it if you wish.

What i would say the quality control is bad so check it over and over and f your not happy get them to send you another one but for £30 you cant go wrong mine actially fitted more securely than my original haha

I already have one of the £30 grills fitted on mine but just wanted to confirm if the strip was removable before I went hacking it apart!

Thanks mate.

Yeah it's an exact copy of stock, so unclips.

As above, the quality is appalling and I ended up binning it and painting the original plastics instead.

Yeah i sent back 2 before i got one that was good, the first one they sent was very bad.

You dont need to bin stuff from ebay you can send it back and get a full refund it dosent matter what they say in the description its part of the ebay rules.
