Dan - he hasnt ghia-ised his grille, it just looks that way because the colour is close to the colour of his car
Thanks for all the comments guys, we will have to try to take pics in some sunset, but where we were wouldn't be overly good for sunset photos. The rims are BA XR option copies in Eseries offset, they are 17x8s. You can get them in 18x8 now.
