Yes, I will next time I'm within earshot of the car... Bonnet hinges - will check and get Mr. G out again...

I also had to remove a massive chunk of the front number to get the kit to sit down fully on the chassis above the radiator.

Ooh, that is particularly useful re tab positioning! Passenger side is clear - I've adjusted the checkstrap slightly so it clears the kit, drivers' side, don't know...I cant get the kit within 5mm of where it needs to go, but it doesn't look like anything is fouling. It's sitting perfectly on the front crossmember

Not yet no, but I haven't got my lights in yet (I'm intending on making adjustments to the crash box later)- again, it looks to clear everything but I'll have a proper look and report back.
