From the looks of things, it doesnt have a lower grill in the bumper, so id get one of them, and a badgeless grille.

Maybe window tints?

slatted grill with irmy logo £30
lightly tinted windows £150
mhws £100

I had a steinmetz grille on my old corsa, would never buy one again! They are so over priced, and the quality is surprisingly poor too!

slatted grill from lmf for £25, and irmy badge is about £5 off ebay!! thats a must for your car jamie, would finish front end off a treat!

tints would look sweet mate, just light all round tho, not dark, keep it subtle!! if ya need a number for a place, i know a lad that does em, hes the best around and does all the dealer fit window titns at range rover, etc

Cool thanks - are their grills better than eBay?

Sorry to keep stealing your thread, but at least it stays at the top.

Looking at that fear pic, I'd say post-97 bumper and Irmscher lights, rather than DIY smoked.
