Then i went a bit rebellious with the chrome centre grille surround and LCR Splitter

and last weekend i fitted my new upper FR grilles (yes the pic is poor!!) and you can just about see the cupra wing mirror covers :)

looking now logically to get the lower fr grilles, but i don't know if it'll look wierd without the fogs or if i should go for a 'they're cooling holes for my engine' look like Ad Lav!
how much am i looking at for the lower grilles btw?

Opinions??

please be gentle :lol:

Try looking in the back of your local autotrader mate for breakers yards etc, or even on t'interweb, might get lucky and find somewhere with a grille and fogs! :)

Cars lookin good mate, (apart from the chrome, lol! :hide: ) You need some twin optic lights now! :D

you need to wire in the fogs though, so the kit is probably cheapest and u just missed out as I have just sold my lower FR grills, a couple of days ago, to a member on here

hmm, i might not bother with the fogs, or if i did i don't think i'd wire em up cuz i would never use them, i didn't with my last car to be honest so they'd just be for show :)

might fit the griles without and if i hate it then i'll fit the fogs :)

£53 for the grilles aint too bad i don't suppose, the top 2 cost me over £30 :wtf: so might visit that magical seat garage that denies all knowledge of being able to order parts i want....love u Barlows of Wolverhampton :lol:
