It’s 400€ export price which doesn’t dramatically ease the pain.

Yep, know about the W&N option, but very unwilling to pay 480eu (plus shipping) for it!!

I have one that is in very good physical condition but the aluminum needs polishing. I mean professional polishing, not meguires polish. Pics available upon request. Yours for cheap. I’ll also trade straight up for a five bar in “ok” condition.

The four bar was introduced during 74 production and is correct. Good luck finding a decent black five bar CSL style grille.

Alan,
Since your car in a Face lift 74 model, you can sport either of the two. The 4 slat one would be period ‘correct’ as well as the 5 slat one, except for the price.

Pics of my 4 bar available. The aluminum looks pitted but it is actually smooth to the touch. Will polish our nicely. There are a few super-tiny “dents”, like pencil tip size. Feel free to lowball me.

SO I NEED A 5 BAR IF OUT THERE
MARKOS HAS A 4 BAR

If you get the one from Markos polished, it will be exactly what you need. Also taking off the slats is super simple (they are bolted on) as opposed to the 5 slat type.....
A real nice 5 slat grill will set you back north of 250 bucks.
