I ran mine down the wheel arch, cable tied to the tie bar mount, as I had no room to get it to the lower grille with the Aircon rad.

I havent got any pics

Main problems I had, was the winter crap would go up to the filter, like leaves, water, stuff like that.

definitely got more cold air though, as it was the only way in, but it didn't get forced in, as the splitter was in the way.

don't get metal stuff full stop.

the metal/fabric stuff you get with vipers rusts like buggery.

get some plastic/rubber stuff from B&Q, like Steve did.

If John has Aircon, then there's no plastic trim

That's the problem I had with mine, there is absolutely no space beside the 2 radiators
