I have the Mobis grille from Korea. As far as I know it's no longer available anywhere. That's okay though because it's a piece of crap and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

The Australian grilles are a bit different. If they're to your liking you might be able to get someone to ship you one.

A lot of people remove their stock grille and replace it with mesh. If done well it looks pretty good.

Here's what the Aussie grille looks like:


If you want one your best bet is to post an ad in the wanted section here and hope someone will pick one up for you, unless you know someone in Australia.

People have been making the custom mesh grilles out of gutter guard from Home Depot.

I've been trying to get an Aussie grill for years...they wont do it. What year accent do you have? I've been looking to replace mine with a stock grill and just paint it Matte black or something.

I will get Aussie grills for anyone that wants them, LC1 or LC2, PM me.

I live in Brisbane, I will get postage quotes for everyone but wouldn't see it being more that $50.00 worldwide AUD including packaging.

Go to GRILLES4YOU.COM, they have some really nice Grilles for the Accent 2 and 4 doors.

I just replaced my and it makes the car look much nicer.
