   looks a bit odd! think the euro look suits the mk2's better but as a whole might look good on ur car!

   I like it but i think it should have a small round or even ovel hole at one side to brake it up a bit and for air flow , IMO .
   
   But it's your car what you want .

    keeeps the grille the way it is manufacturers make grilles and have big holes in the bumpers for one reason to keep your engine cool

    am keeping it as it is atm. and vt kitting the car. can't be bothered with all the extra hastle of buying a 2nd grill to smooth if it could look gash and i hate it. would be a waste of time and money.

    how did you get the vt kit to fit without there being a big gaping hole between the bumper and wing?
