sorry people,only got one pic of my car before it was stripped to get an overhaul. this is a pic without the bumper on so that you get the gist of it
To fit the bumper it needed loads of triming,i made brackets so that i could STILL keep the grill.(without the grill i think you take the look of the s1,and it looks a bit gay.imo.
I had to trim the grill up quite a bit as well(the added bonus of this was extra airflow!!!!!!!!)
BETTER TO HAVE HALF A GRILL THAN NON AT ALL
without a grill it looks like a half done job and a bit barryboy.

OH,and i have never had ANY overheating probs,and the car temps behave NO DIFFERENT to what it used to be without the large intercooler!

Finally i cut a square out of the bumper and fitted black velcro either side of the hole,and below the bumper in the front spolier.I then fitted velcro to the no plate so that i can remove/move the numberplate to where ever i want(extra airflow without lookin too gay...
