Looks neat.
I wouldn't worry about it sitting slightly proud.
How much did it set you back, all in ?
I've been thinking about getting one for my sister, but the postage was as much as the cover itself !

I did look at blocking the bottom grill from behind but wondered how deept the grill has to be to make a difference if the opening is blocked from behind

So some weight reduction, the spare wheel and jack kit

given that the spare is actually a full size item why is it rated as only suitable for 80 km/h ?

Probably made to lower standards than regular wheels.
Is the tyre itself some special temporary tyre ?

My second issue is how to support the spare wheel cover (piece of ply) when there is no wheel underneath ?
|
Is there no covering over the spare wheel well ?

Tyres are up at 45 which makes most glides much better than before but the ride quality has suffered - stuff that didn't rattle before now does, including my fillings.

Probably down to the stiffer suspension on the VRS.
With my softer suspension and 45psi, the ride is harder, but it's not rattling stuff.
