2nd post due to the bump limit..

This is THE rare Hippo Sleek illuminated grille. I tried searching google and zilvia, and was not able to find any for sale, ANYWHERE! Also, as I wasnt able to find any for sale, I wasnt able to get a good feel on pricing. My understanding is that this was orignally an msrp of 50,000yen, however is now discontinued and almost impossible to find.

The asking price is $600 obo (please note the OBO). I know its on the higher side for a grill, but if you can find it elsewhere for cheaper then feel free to buy it from your source and keep your hater comments to yourself.

I am willing to accept offers, within reason or trade (+cash) depending on what you have. **There isnt much I need

Looking for:
ARC radiator (S13 - Sr20det) *not interested in other radiators
MAYBE a vented silvia (s13) hood - let me know what you have.
Let me know what you have..

This is BRAND NEW to my knowledge as the wiring is still untapped and I dont see any rock chips. There are minor knicks/wear (pictured), however from what I can tell, I DO NOT believe it is from being on the road/track.

I added a temporary wire to hook it up to a battery and get a picture of this lit up - pretty awesome!

I am in no hurry to sell this, as I wouldnt mind using it myself, however I am strapped for cash as I am sure most of you are, and I have other cars that need a little more TLC than me sitting on parts Im not using.

Again, feel free to shoot offers. If I dont get much of a response on here, I will probably try posting on eB@y.

Thanks for looking

and the pics...

HAHAHA, at least I was able to get a good laugh out of this one.

I dont mind keeping the grille, but like the original post says - feel free to shoot me offers. *But keep in mind, the best offer I had was $300 so far. If this doesnt sell here, I will try other platforms, and if still no takers I will hold on to it for a few years and MIGHT use it, or try selling it again.
