Front light guards - Do you need to drill the bodywork?
I'm just looking for a set of Wolf Style front light guards. Am i right in thinking that I need to drill the bodywork to fit them?

Are there any other options? I like the look of the wolf guards as they level up the "bull nose" air con front end nicely but i'm not sure I can take a drill to my nice shiny new 110 (yet).

IF you go for them then make sure you put plenty of anti seize on the bolt / screw threads as they are well known for binding up in the rivnuts over time, this means that when you come to undo them the rivnuts end up spinning in the holes in the wing. Check previous threads on the matter. Steve.
