Hi Scott,

My son has a 73 spitfire in our warehouse. I'll take a look at it in the morning + will be pulling out my TR6 grill in the next few days. Both of them should be made out of the same material.

Hi Scott,

As far as I am aware, it's just plastic and quite brittle too!

My Tr6 grill is made out of aluminum, strips of aluminum welded together to make a grid type of grill. Still need to check the Spitfire grill out.
