Prefer the original - the bigger units fit the space better and I like the ambers on the pre-f/l (as I had) and clears on the post....

I prefer them, just needs front bumper painting to match the rest of the car. Looks great.

You can see the gap around the triangle in the bottom corner of each light visible. So they're just clear factory zenons - all factory zenons are clear - painted yellow. Not good if you ask me. That front end is defined by the fried eggs. Without just looks wrong ... to me.

Too many join lines now. It would look better if it was integrated into the wing as a single panel, rather than the separate filler piece. It might work on a black car, but stands out too much on a bright yellow one..

Stumbled on this browsing ebay, an acquired taste! (I do love a matching trailer though)

My initial thought was "that poor Golf" and then the rest of it confused me a bit until I realised it was an Escort. God thats awful in so many ways. The "aero", the wheels, the mk4 Golf lights, the trailer, the fact its a convertible Escort...

Quite like that Boxster though ^. I'm a fan of the fried eggs though so not something I'd ever do...

I agree. Pointless lines and shapes ................. almost as if someone has taken something away and just filled in the gaps.

Black wire wheels does it no favours

Poor thing!

Change front plate to normal one and locate it where it should be, change rear plate for a yellow one, remove window tints, de tint rear lights, bin wheels or sell to a scenester and replace with the xj220 style ones, enjoy barging about.

Edit , just noticed, are they M3 style door mirrors?

The paint job actually looks well done, I just don’t like the black cockpit and the spoiler is awful

[trails]

Silver wheels, no spoiler and no tints and it would look pretty cool, for me at least.

Yeah I like the colour but it doesn’t look like a Cerbera to me with the black roof.

Up for sale at £28k, no idea on condition of chassis but seems a bit pricey for an s6.

Same for me, I don't mind the black roof.

I'm sure I saw this on Facebook this morning the owner was showing off his aero wheels iirc

The equivalent of a tattooed, multi-pierced Botox junkie who just can't stop.

fking hell.

It's a pity that care in the community isn't able to identify those individuals who are so deranged they should be locked up in an NHS high security prison cell and be fed a dangerous cocktail of sedatives and when that wears off given electric shock treatment on their genitals. Daily. For ever.

At least it's a V6 though..........oh hang on, it's an auto.....

IIRC chemical chaos of this parish was building an omega track car. I am crossing all my digits in anticipation that this is his work.

Can't see any white jeans in the photos though...
