Looks a bit like a CE Lancer sedan grille... I can't see too well on this CRT monitor I'm using at work but I doubt it'll fit.

yea i think luc is right, looks like a galant or lancer grill, maybe even suspiciously like a 3rd gen one .... ask the seller??

Meh, for $2.50 try to mod it to fit, no big loss and an interesting experiment. :D

Yeah mod it and see if it'll fit. Then post up some pics. You never know, you might start a new trend for 2nd gens. Grab a TS or TR grille from the wreckers for $10-$20 and use that as your donor for the new grille. Pull off the little nibs and apply them onto the lancer grille so it can fasten to the front of the magna.

I'd say try sellin cos with the angling of the headlights of the 2nd gen the bottom of the grill would stick out a mile

I guarantee you could spend 40 hours trying to make that fit and it wont, wrong shape, wrong lines, wrong everything just flog it off

yeah sell it off
being a lancer front, you should be able to get rid of it reasonably easily

I would have to disaggre look at the angle of where the headlights would sit!!!!! the lancer headlights have more of an angle on them where as the magna onee are basically straight so i would try it and see if it will fit

Yes but 2nd gen bumpers, where the grille is, isnt straight, it actually dips down, meaning you would have to add on a HUGE curve to the bottom to get it to fit - waste of time purely and simply

Def not a second gen one.
Looking at it may be a third gen one as to the right on top there is a small cut out similar to the third gen one where the bonnet safety catch goes
