Looks cool Spiky
I wonder though if a different grill would help? The OE Pug slatted ones look a bit dated IMHO.
I bought a CRAP replica Gutman grill off Ebay for mine and although the fit was pants it looked a lot more modern / tidy. Binned it though as it really did not fit at all.
While I'm at it modding your car for you - Mono wiper, aero catches, bin the roof aerial (you don't need a Stereo for the track, and you're a trailer tart anyway!), maybe even white wheels?
Just a thought...
