Very neat. Just think of all that extra air that's going through the rad on a hot day...

That looks so much better. Way to go :wink:

Now you just need some clear indicator/side light lenses. Looks more contemporary and particularly suits a black car. Side ones as well if you haven't already gone down that route :poke:

I have been thinking about those.........80 quid though ? That's a new pair of front shocks ;)

Can you get the side indicators in clear too then ? Haven't seen those.

Muley has another source but they look very good Trevor. And much cheaper than the ones I fitted to Rambo (I think I might have originally got them from a Vauxhall dealer ????)

Also cheaper than the ones I got from PNM
