Robbie, looks very nice, now has a "muscle car" look. Sounds like the fitting was a challenge.

Fitting was a challenge, but a satisfying one!! Courage needed to cut off bits and take a dremel saw to the numberplate box. Otherwise, once I cottoned on to reversing one of the bolts at the bottom of the normal cowl frame which gave me a mounting point for the brackets I had made, it worked well.
As you gather I am very happy with the result
Cheers!

Close, Dave, it is an Austrian wooden house. They are produced by a company called Griffner, built in a factory and erected on-site - incredibly well insulated and it is on a site bounded by mature oak and beech - we like it anyway!!

Hi Robbie, Do you think that can be fitted to a trad with a full width bumper? Meabh.

Maebh,
I would think it can, the lip on the front of the cowl I got would, I think mate up with the inside of a bumper, but I expect some "fitting" would be required. You probably would need to make slightly different brackets so as to fully stabilise the whole fitting as it would be hard to attatch the front lip of the cowl to the bumper.
I suspect not impossible, but would require a good "Bodge" as did fitting it to mine!

Robbie that is a worthy and effective addition. Looks really great.  What were the total cost of the parts?

Trevor,
The following are the part numbers and cost
MSM3195 LOWER COWL £45.47
MBC0773 LOWER GRILLE £119.00
MBC0780 MESH £39.08
These were the codes my dealer used so they should be OK
Cheers!
