I can live with it for now, so i'll wait until spring when hopefully we get the warmer weather again. B)

New headlights:

Broken grill surround :( :

Happened when trying to shut the bonnet after fitting the headlights and thinking it was something wrong with the bonnet catch, not realising that the headlight was preventing it from shutting properly. :( Just glad the headlight wasn't damaged as the grill is cheaper to replace, so something good from a bad situation. :D

That is some serious bad luck mate. On the plus side your new headlights look great :-)

Hope you get the grille sorted soon

New one ordered, so when it arrives i'll just swap over my current grill and put the new surround on. It will also give me a chance to spray my current chrome surround silver and see how it looks, then i've always got the newer one to turn black if silver looks too much. B)

New lights do make the front look a lot smarter. :)

Wouldn't worry on the gap under the seat, you can't see it anyway...

Just checked your youtube channel, see you are making good use of the drive recorder. :D

I think i'll end up forgetting about the gap in time, so will probably just leave it as it is. :)

:D Just wait until i've got the 300G fitted in the rear window, double the 'idiots'. ;):D

  • 2 weeks later...

New grill arrived at home and few bits ordered off eBay for another mod i'm going to attempt to do. ;)

Just got to wait 2 weeks before i'm back home to be able to fit them. :(

Any guesses on my other mod?? (hint: It's nothing original but it's something i hope will help the car) ;)

My latest job:

At least it doesnt require a soldering iron! lol

Ive been thinking of this mod for a while but what are the true benefits? Less smoke under load?

Can you also supply a few details about what youve bought? Ie what size pipe and what size fittings are on the catch tank?

Good luck btw!

I also read this thread:

I thought it worthwhile doing to prevent anything potentially happening further down the line. :thumbup:

I was going to paint the grill but following some advice, i've decided to go down the above route instead. :)
