He's still licking his wounds over the R32 rears, allegedly.

ive left the drivers side rear Blank in for the winter months, mainly because Horn/wiring harness is behind there and would be more open to the elements so will remove in the summer as in 2nd pic.

You don't half get some muck in them, I tell thee!

I've picked up a couple of these that I'd adapting into the ducts, then I'll run flexi pipework to the archliners pointing at the brakes. Much like NeilM (I think?) has done.

OK I'm a duffer, but just picked up a set of the ventilated grilles from the Stealers and before I damage the surrounding paintwork can someone explain how the old ones are removed, please?

Thanks.

^ Just offer the plastic grill's tab to the slot on the right of the fog and single screw fix on the lefthand side. Reverse layout on other side of car.

Thanks, chaps.

Hadn't looked closely enough to spot that they screw on. Quick job for Saturday morning, then.

Having found out on here that the cheapest supplier were, ironically, the Stealers, I paid £9.67 ea. +VAT. Just received Awesome's newsletter and they're asking the best part of £60 a pair! What's that about... or am I missing something?!
