Does the mesh affect (reduce) air flow?

I guess it could a bit, but so does bent fins on the rad.
Nothing to worry about though. What do you reckon.

Anyone got an air flow meter?

or the steel grills

Cheer Maxus, good choice. Off to dealer tomorrow to pick up that prodrive brochure, see what there's is like, how much.

I guess it cost around £30 all in

50x100 sheet of steel grill about £18 (Ali £21)
1 set of snips £7
2.5m of clear tubing to edge it and cover those sharp edges, black rubber would be better £1
can of lacquer £4
1 plaster, it's bloody sharp stuff 5p

and enough steel to go into full production.

Oh, and it was all from B&Q.

and Mad don't tell anyone but it's not fixed in yet, been a bit lazy about that, it needs a clean first.
I'm going to use a clear sealer behind it.

Yeh, not really sure about it though. They've got a new top grill, which looks pants, you lose the depth that the sports grill offers and a lower bumper grill which looks.....erm...OK..probably looks better in the flesh though. I'll scan some pics at work tomorrow and post them.

I'm a bit confused about the pricing though, quoted £400 fitted, not sure now if that was for both or just the lower grill, must be for both, I'll confirm this tomorrow also.

Was hoping to have a look over the STi aswell but, have they got one, have they ****.

Interested in your grill mods Boultsy, been thinking of doing this myself when I find some cheap quality mesh. Subaru are having a laugh aren't they with their prices!!! For the lower one did you remove the bumper? How does it come off and how did you fix on the mesh?

Cheers
