I find it almost impossible to imagine that someone would install a WBX, but not cut a hole for a lower grill. Could you imagine what the quality of the rest of the install would be like if they did? Or maybe the rad is on the back hatch! Hinky I say's. That image of the engine is fuzzy and just looks like it doesn't belong with the rest of them. Neil.
