| I`m with Fabia156 on this, to me it looks like an ugly big nose. Jason, why not make something yourself out of fibreglass, or just do some color coding on the org. grille?

| I am going to try the VRsStu colour code mod to the chrome bit on mine and if it looks poo then I will buy a Milotec grille. Plus I was going to see how the colour coding comes out and depending on how I feel I might put some brows on but dont want it to look to chavvy Like others have said, the OEM standard look is quite nice.

| Well, the only reason, is that I promised Richard Mr 12 volt, the whole bonnet off mine as it now stands, as I thought mine was coming complete. But as it's just the "bonnet" I'm looking for other options. Jabba Luke, you have PM. ![]()

| I'm with Fabia156 on this one. It just doesn't look right to me. The nose looks too pronounced, especially where it meets the bonnet line. It might look better if the silver surround was more flush with the grill, if you know what I mean. As it is there it just looks like a big nostril! |

| Yep the FIMC is now in production along with the hybrid turbo, just havnt had time to get it on the website yet, altho the core doesnt look that big it is 70mm thick and it sits right at the front (also fits the standard bumper with no cutting) to get maximum airflow, with "other fabia FMIC" that are taller they are blocked off buy most of the bumper, there for having less of a cooling effect anyway.
