Will C Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 far as i'm aware m8 those kits on e bay are made to fit straight on without any mods. I've been looking at those too for the p38. Let us know if its a straight replacement, I would expect it to be as it's advertised as a P38 part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hybrid_From_Hell Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 I have always thought the P38 as being seriously pig ugly and bland. That mod oddly IMHO one minute makes it look better, .....then a few secs later you think er "No" Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Escape Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I can appreciate the grill conversion (been thinking about this myself, I know my local mechanic has a spare grill lying about), but less so the side vents. It's starting to look too much like a Freelander 2, and altough I like the Freebie as is and consider it a decent replacement for a P38a (size and comfortwise it's probably a closer match than the L322) I think it does deduces from the P38a's inherent flair. Having said this, I must admit I have added an airvent to my V8 as well, but I chose a black one from a Defender and placed it where the air intake is.
