Well then - going against the norm for these things, I phoned my local dealership (Wollaston Mini) and they quoted me a very good price indeed for an aero grille

So think i'm gonna take the plunge and order one for pick up next week

Looks like the markskaaa mega fitting day could be taking place at a venue near you very soon

Well I can't afford the aero kit, not this side of the wedding so I'm thinking about a colour coded (top and bottom edge only) Aero-grill.

The princely sum of £51 Chris, which I didnt think was too bad at all

Yep - i asked about the aero kit and errrr it was a bit too pricey for me......but am loving your idea of a colour-coded aero grille
If you get one within the next couple of weeks, maybe we can roll it in to our 'fitting' session

.....actually, you should definitely get one within the next couple of weeks, as it would coincide nicely with our birthdays...

That would be nice, seriously tempted to do a colour coded grill in place of the Aero kit for now, then I only have to replace the lower grill when the kit is fit in the year twenty-who-knows-when.

Hi Mark, I would be more than happy to help BUT (there's always a but) i'm only around until tomorrow as i'm in Devon from Saturday morning for a week then back the following weekend only to head off to the USA with work - sorry buddy. Hopefully, Timmsy or Sleety can help...
