kev R1 - 22/4/06 at 05:24 PM

That black mesh looks great against the yellow bodywork!

Hi Kev, just a minor point, but havn't you put the bonnet grills in the wrong way round, surely they are there as extractors to get hot air out, as per the donor, IMHO Regards Chippy

not wanting to pick holes, but how is the bonet held down? looking at the second pic fromthe top and can't see any normal style rubber catches dzus fasteners. is the bonnet fully secured in that pic? only the shut line looks a bit wonky!

Nice grill btw

cheers,

Ned

The bonnet catches haven't been fitted yet.

thanks hellfire, no the catches haven't been fitted yet, as for the vents, maybe they should be the other way round but i prefer them that way so there
