Dman 5 Report post Posted March 1, 2012 Just need to get some GTA black headlights and should look better i think.... Next is the rear bumper,and the zender arches.....will it ever get finished,i hope so Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LJ_GQV 115 Report post Posted March 1, 2012 If you can, (take your headlights out or buy a replacement set) heat your headlights up with a heat gun and pull them apart at the seal. Paint the plastic inside black & restick it back together, GTA headlights for cheaper im not sure if thats the exact way to do it but i know you can split the headlight unit & paint it black to make 'standard' lights look like GTA 1's ;':) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jhc 28 Report post Posted March 1, 2012 I like this a lot so far, but arches could ruin it if the wheels dont fill them properly. Stick on arches are very hard to pull off (excuse the pun) and I haven't seen a rear bumper that doesn't look gash except the gta one. The carbon grill gets my vote tho.

I agree about the arches,but they are the Zender ones fitted to Alfas as an optinal extra i think,they are very subtle but just give it a good look i think. The bumper im getting is almost a GTA looking rear,very similar indeed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jhc 28 Report post Posted March 1, 2012 Cool. If the arches do stick out a bit too much it's normally nothing a set of 5mm spacers can't fix. Wheels that sit too far in are one of my pet hates. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Smaky 73 Report post Posted March 6, 2012 That's a marmite mod for me, I like the overall look, BUT the lower splitter ruins the whole thing for me, makes it look like a double chin, if only it didn't have that then I'd go but as it is it scores a Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
