Gareth - Not me, Nic.
Nic - No, it's not that relevant, but having a big hole where a headlight should be and aero catched bonnet with no locks does make a vandals life a bit easier doesn't it! Bringing it a bit more on to topic again - Do you get people "reminding" you you have a headlamp missing?!

deleted it as barnshaw was being his usual self.
but that still really hasnt got anything to do with headlamps missing. taking a headlight out is my cold air feed. for now, until i cut a bumper up and use some bits of drain pipe.

Sorry to hear about that Nic. Surely the oil filter will stop sand going through
Now ive read the thread a bit i see you have already looked for lockable aero catches.
My car got keyed and that made me feel sick, they done about 12 more cars in the row so it wasnt aimed for me but where i was first in line they done my bonnet

50/50 then i guess whether its fecked, would lack of oil caused further damage? Dont know how long you ran it for.

Oh and i have OEM lights that i smoked myself so when i get bored i can change the look of the car. Usually swap over for winter as i dont benefit from cold air feed as its usually chuffing freezing. Didnt this winter and had a headlight smashed by a gritter
