Thanks! I'm keen to find out if it has the sport suspension to as it's sitting rather low but not been lowered AFAIK

The whole lot. (I don't mean the tech1 kit, just the kidney grill, lights and indicators.)

No worries, I'd rather an honest opinion.
It's constructive criticism

have to say that the car looked great before, the light metallic doesn't suit the tints or the black grill.
but it is your car, i have clear smoked lenses on mine at the moment but i'm not sure how long they'll be staying.. is good trying things out though:)

Ha ha the car covers on as the rear windows slashed and the bricks were there to hold the sheet down as it was really windy last week or so. Handbrake etc work as it should

I was thinking it too, i dont think the lights suit the colour of the car. Had it been grey or black, it would have looked good but i had to try it!

totally mate. you have to try these things, there is no right or wrong to any of this, it is ultimately what you like and not what 10 internet blokes think!

Agreed with the rest, I liked it before. I could live with the clear signals though. Im partial to Glacier as well.

Guys what would you value this at? With the normal front end that is. I only want to know as the insurance as asking what it's valued at?
325 auto, factory fitted tech 1 kit, 90,000 miles, 4 previous owners, condition is as you see in the photos.
Thanks

So, after a quick wash, using bumper care on the trim/mirrors and spraying the rear indicators red, I decided to take a quick photo. I know, the headlights are still to be taken back to standard!

It is indeed! Taken around 6:30 this evening. TBH, the whole care could do with a re-spray, it has bubbling on the right wing, laquer peeling on the left wing and front bumper has a lot of peeling

Personally prefer chrome kidney grills, clear or tinted indicator are nice but not a big fan of those headlights
