Hey Guys + Gals,
I thought I would share my little modification and see what you think, as I don't think anyone else has done this yet and I think it looks rather funky

Think that may have looked quite good Elliott. Would have matched your mirror which looked good. Also gon well with your grab handles.

It's not silver :/ I just left the grills the bog standard colour, that way it matches the fabric on the interior roof
Plus I'm just lazy and somewhat dislike silver in the car...

Yeh I've seen a few people spray the whole unit black, doesn't look great because the grill is hard to get right. But that does look good mate! Seeing that done now it is tempting to try it out myself.
