I must say the grill isn't my cup of tea at all.
Fair play for being different though mate, we all know how hard that is with saxo's nowadays.

Just got back from the Renault World Series at Silverstone and im creamed so im gonna pop up the progress from yesterday...
Frodo front pads are on, hopefully you all know what a brake pads looks like so i wont bother with pics lol. Bedding them in slowly for use at Rockingham in a couple of weeks 
Out with the old in with the new...yesterday i ditched the shitty, broken and completely fooked rad.
No rad 
Comparison of old vs new to show how shit the old radiator was...
New Alu Valeo radiator with 82 thermostat (helps to keep the engine run slightly cooler )
State of the old scrap after me and Alex gave it the 'can i stand on it' test, dropped it a couple of times, stamped on it and dropped a hammer on it a few times lol...
Bled the whole system and re-filled it.
Takes 7 litres in total to top-up a VTS radiator!
Downsides....i need a new passengers driveshaft and the car is filthier that a slag's keg's but it gives me a chance to clean up the whole underside next weekend, re-seal and re-paint and mess around with the interior before FCS.
More next week and FCS prep progress
