Thanks John,

I would have liked to have something in the way of Fog lights as well but with the way the intercooler pipes come across there was just no room. Maybe I could fit in some EF GLi Vents?

Nice job Paul.....you to Troy.

I'd go with some lights airbrushed. If done right you would hardly pick it from a distance, and would set it off. Having said that, after time you would get used to the appearance, and not see it as being plain...

Cheers

Daz

You can get those led lights that you push down on from Ikea. Bout the same size as fog lights and run on AAA batteries.

Double sided tape, whack em on and presto, instant foggies.

Only downside is, if ya want em on, ya have to pull over, get out and push down on it to turn em on.

:wink:

Definately a good option Troy. Cheap and functional.

The plain look without any vents or foggies either side of the cooler suits the overall look of the car, looks great as is I reckon :wink:
