Yup, slats on looks better, in my humble opinion.

P91MER: Any chance of a photo looking straight at the front?

:wales: I saw those grilles at a show I went to and nearly bought one, no offence but after seeing yours on the car I'm glad I didn't. It's not to my taste and I dont think it would go with the rest of my car, good job we all have different tastes or our minis would look as similar and boring as all these boy-racered corsas etc. :D

Hi all, thanks for all the feedback, i did order some dark 'ion' headlamps aswel, and i will be getting 4 angel eye spots soon, n i was hoping that would make it look a bit better. but i think my mind is made up now, i will be posting it back n getting something else. When that photo was taken it wasn't properly on, so to get another pic i would need to take old one off etc etc..

The grill looks superb when it isn't on a mini, but for some reason just looks out of place on the car!!
