Pretty straight forward way how you did it! Any other eco-mods in the future?

Thanks, I've found a laminated piece of chipboard, looks like the back of a bookcase, I'm going to paint it black and put it under the front bumper (there's a large gap from bumper to radiator). I'm not sure how aero improving this will be, since the front bib has a extended lip that goes down further than the bottom of most of the bumper, but it couldn't hurt!
I need to block off the other intakes too, I just need to find something very reversible (car will be sold on).

I've just applied a rough tank tape out block to my '96 polo once I'm happy with the temps I think I'll take your lead with the insulation idea!

Go for it man! I decided against tape (like a few other guys have) since it's not gonna last against rain.
