Yes couldn't agree more, I have no idea why it so high as standard, first car I lowered and it improved the look so much.

What you planning on doing with the lower grill?

Im hoping to fit a slated grill (r design) as it really tidys the front end up but had no luck finding one for a decent price yet :shrug:

Tough one, you will have to do a bit of searching. I know someone who had it done for around £330 I believe including paint. Good mod to have done on the car.

Love your Rocco dude! I have one in Reflex Silver and I love it but I would prefer it to be Pewter Grey like yours.


Does anyone know if the R is available in Pewter Grey as well? :?

Dark Oak, as far as I can tell.

Ummm, actually, is it maybe Sumatra? - http://www.sciroccocentral.co.uk/forum/ ... 185&p=1508" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
