Mina gallery grill, bonnet won't close!
Hi everyone.
Finally got the long awaited facelift grill for my X-Type, and it looked amazing.
The old grill was easily removed with four 10mm bolts, and the new one should just be bolted stuck, since it came with a mounting bracket. Problem is, first of all, I could only manage to bolt on the two center bolts. The other two seemed too short to reach the bonnet. Not a big deal, just buying longer 10mm bolts, but the bonnet won't close.
It seems like the new grill is a tad bit taller, and sort of rubs on the front bumper when I try to close it. Anyone else with the same problem?

Skinny,
It looks GREAT!
I really don't know for sure whether or not to, it seems everyone is going that route and I may put it off (just cos I like to be different) but it DOES LOOK GOOD!!
Ps, has anyone got the sound of your mina/adamesh dual sports exhaust?
I fancy checkin that out?
Nice 1!!! Stu

I'm curious Skinny, what do you mean by Mina/Adamesh? Also, a a 2.1 normally has a single exhaust, did you fit an Y-pipe or something like that?

Ah, right. "Planned modifications", should've read that bit too...
There's a single-to-dual exhaust kit made by Arden, at least:
X Type Adaptor Kit for the 2.0 liter Version - FierceSpeed
Regarding Mina/Adamesh decision, I take it you've checked the recordings I made (had both)?
