That filter looks much bigger than the K&N cone one you can get. Let me know if it makes much of a difference 
Yeah SERE is the best place for the grills, the standard facelift ones should only be around £10 each, I know the FR ones are a lot more pricey though

Yea it does make a difference not major, but it does pull a little bit more.That filter looks much bigger than the K&N cone one you can get. Let me know if it makes much of a difference

There was no problem lol. It just makes the growl when you really put your foot down, but sucks when you accelerate. And it's 50cm across the neck lol. The filter needs kind of bodging lol unless you get a reducer to make it from 50-70mm.

I want to but I'm not allowed it until Xmas as the misses bought it for me for me prezzi! Lol, will be getting it sprayed soon though. Then prob be out all Xmas day fitting it! Lmao
lol i think its a bit small though so might put it up on the for sale section. its a k&n cold air feed so i think its for the 57i kit which is smaller. the hellfrauds kit is mahoosive lol
Today I decided to do something that I haven't ever seen done before.
This has been done by many people:
But then I had a sudden thought and just went for it:
So that escalated into this:
Which then turned into this:
And this is the finished product:
Looks quite nice I think, yet to put on car though. Will take pics tomorrow due to it being dark.

Put the grill on the car, couldn't wait lol so taken a shi* little picture but will get another in the light.
Yea man its going good it fell off once though and i luckily lifted my bonnet and it was still there in the engine bay which i was shocked at lol. i was thinking for a few days before i found it that it souns alot more beeft when i pull away, but then thought ah it must had needed running in lol. Turned out the fuc*er had fell off lol.
So as soon as i seen that i got str8 on fleebay and got myself a 64mm>50mm reducer. Was only 4.49 all in.
What you think to the grill process?
Dont think anyone has done it, have you seen anyone that has done it before because i cant put a false claim on my thread can i? lol.

Thats awesome
i'm surprised it stayed under the bonnet as theres too much space in the 1.2 bonnet lmao thats quality. I'm assuming in terms of power it hasn't made a noticeable difference?Thats a bloody bargain mate btw
What do you mean about the grill btw? You mean the painting?
It's not a noticeable difference in power but the sheet roar of the filter makes it sound mean! But for only 29.99 and 4.49 for the filter and reducer then it's a bargain! What's yours re 1.4 16v? Might make a slight difference in that if it is a 1.4.
The grill I have chopped the black panel along the top of the grill. You can see in pic 1 the black bit which blocks off the part at the top behind the slats. And in the last pic it's gone. All other pics show the process.
Lol
