   Hi...
   
   Had a bit of work done on the car in the bodyshop recently. Put some standard plates back on too. Along with some new badges on the tailgate. De wipered finally! Meant to do that for ages. Looks perfect now.
   
   However, this pic is a few months old now but would you de chevron if you was me??? I have all badges on the car (inc 16v) so keep that in mind.
   
   
   
   I cant decide if i should or not! Dont really fancy a dimma grill, stuff like that. I did see one grill on here once though ( i think it was on here) where the lad had cut the chevron bit out and carried the slats on right through.. Anyone know what i mean? Looked very factory!
   
   Anyway, what would you do?
   
   Cheers

   looks really gd as it is really, if you will do anything then do what your talking about with the slats (get a photoshop done first to seen if its suits or not) you need to buy another grill and cut the slats out and fibreglass then onto your grille then paint, not sure if its a hard job or not. Love you yellow calipers with the o.z's go really well together

   de-slat it and mesh it, leaving the chevrons in, looks really nice like that
