Custom Vehicle Grille Specification Example for Workshop Replacements: Upgraded Version
Custom Vehicle Grille Specification Example for Workshop Replacements: Upgraded Version
This is a worked specification for custom vehicle grille in a upgraded version programme. It is the document we would send a buyer who asks what exactly they are getting: the material, the dimensions that are actually controlled, the finish, and the checks that happen before anything is packed.
The upgraded version version exists because the duty cycle on workshop replacements is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually packing that arrived crushed at the port.

How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Magnesium Alloy, in this example.
- List the dimensions that are actually controlled and the tolerance on each.
- Name the finish and what it has to survive.
- State the inspection level and who pays when a lot fails.

Processes involved
- anodising
- sintering
- CNC machining
- rubber vulcanisation
- heat treatment
- ultrasonic cleaning
Where this example applies
Programmes that run upgraded version most often specify this build for workshop replacements. Related applications include workshop replacements, dealership service, trailer axles, fleet maintenance, municipal fleets.
Checks before packing
- Dimensional report against the approved drawing.
- AQL 4.0 sampling on the finished lot.
- Finish inspection under agreed lighting.
- Carton drop test on the first lot of a new packing specification.
Questions buyers ask
How is packing specified?
Individual packing, inner box quantity and carton marking are confirmed at quotation stage so the cartons arrive ready for your warehouse.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 3000 pieces per specification. Mixed sizes inside one shipment are accepted once the total reaches that figure.
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 3000 pieces per line.
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the IATF 16949-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
