Which front end design would you go for if you had a choice?

Here's the end result of mine. Plastic work was by plasticman. He has posted above on this forum.
Its not a simple replacement part though, as the old nose section needs parts of the replacement mouth section glass fibreing into place. Then you'll need some paint. There are others as seen in some of the other images which are a replacement part, but they bring the air ducts inwards, which I didn't like very much.

Good evening alltogether,

thanks for the information on the "plasticman grille". Ahhhmm... Originally i was referring to the oval front end on the light-green car shown on top of the choice-list above. Is that a "plasticman-part", too?

Thanks and best regards @all from my garage,

Na, that's a custom job front end. But it should be achievable by removing the old pepperpot grill and scultpting in glassfibre. Good luck!

Thanks for all the information. Well then,sounds like creative homework to be done.... ;O)

Best regards from over here,

Any excuse Darren....... (Don't blame you though)

The early Mk2's with just one faired-in light look good. This one at the 200 Birmingham motor show.

Oh come on Steve I did leave it a while :-)
At least you got it .......

I ended up going for mk1 grill with a mk2 rear spoiler to get the best of both imo

[MPETT]

Nice, I like the black grill and splitter.

[Cockey]

I'm in the original front end with 'S' splitter camp, however, I've just seen this photo and think it looks rather good.



Most Mk1's with an updated grill tend to have the one with the big air scoop each side (is that the Typhon?). Don't think I've come across many with the above picture's combo.

While on the topic of front ends - has anyone tried changing the lenses on the top two lights on the Tuscan - the bottom two I love the look but the top ones are all plasticy - would love to switch them to the same look as the others! It looks like they've been changed in the image above?
