Had my best MPG average on the way to work the other day. Average of 41.2MPG for the 28 mile journey, mainly A-road dual carrageway but some single road stuff too! Not bad I thought :)

Just ordered a FK badgeless grill from venommotorsport.com. Not a bad price really! Looking forward to it arriving and I will get round to fitting it at some stage. Photos to follow...

Badgeless grill fitted!

Finally got round to fitting the FK badgless grill! What do you all think? Also, what do you think a LCR splitter would look like :help: I'm not sure about it on a pre-facelift bumper :confused:

I've never been too keen on these badgeless grilles...I think it makes the front look a bit plain. It might look better if the grilles either side are the slatted type..

Each to their own I suppose ;)
I have kept the old grill and I was thinking of spraying the chrome bits matt black just to see what it looks like. Thinking of doing the same with the rear badge [B)]

Decided to change the front wipers for aero jobbies! The old ones were at the end of their life anyway and I always like to have new ones for the winter. Used wiperblades.co.uk to find Bosch aero twin pack to fit the old style wiper arms. Seem to be a good choice so far. Pictures to follow!
