No, I need the liter. What liter car? 1.4? 1.5?

They do similar things. Search here for "Intake FAQ".

thechamp023, K&N does a full Typhoon Kit for your car (lucky you) shown below.

I would recommend buying it of eBay or somewhere, look for part number 60-1011TP.

You can view the fitting instructions for this kit HERE.

What do you mean? Just have a look around on eBay for a Mugen or Type R grille to replace your current one.

Surely that would depends on what you think looked best, painted or not painted. We can't make those kind of decisions for you
