Looking nice! All the little touches make a car!! Any reason u have removed your battery cover?

Facelifts don't have them :( the fuses are arranged differently to so the available one doesn't fit. I was temped to make one, but I think it would be nearly as bit as the engine cover to fit all the bits an bobs in lol!

Liking the grille mate! Usually see people do them with the smaller honeycomb, but at least yours will match the other grilles :)

You for putting the Seat badge on it yea?

Cheers, I have a slim stick on badge, but as you can see it's a little smaller than the original so I'm not 100% sure about it yet
