Another small update.

I got a spare grill off ebay for a bargain of a tenner! So i cut it up to make a smooth/badgeless grill.
For a quicky attempt i dont think its too bad at all :)

All filled in with a waft of paint
http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s214/ratspeed_2007/MK1%20popular%20plus/Photo0806.jpg

then painted and fitted

http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s214/ratspeed_2007/MK1%20popular%20plus/Photo0808.jpg

And the small crack from having to bend it when fitting it :rolleyes:
http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s214/ratspeed_2007/MK1%20popular%20plus/Photo0809.jpg

but overall happy with it and ready for Wonderland at the weekend :grin:
