Agree there's something wrong with the front end
Facelift lights and grill might be better as lights a smaller.
Rest is good though

Prefer the morrettes. Looks like a metro from the front otherwise. Something isnt right about it! Lovely car aside from that though.

Morettes look better imo.
Suit the overall look of the car.

Love that.
Its also got the right type/style wheels with it as well to go with the wide arches.
As Tom says needs different rear lights but it really needs top half red, bottom half clear, I made a set for mine back in the 90's for my old Nova and it was one of a few tha had them.

That Nova was built in Ayr about 7 years ago and used to be purple.
Then it went down your way and it got XE'd.

looks really good, loving it apart from the front end, im thinking that it needs a smaller grill and some wider lights to suit it maybe?
