Looks good without the spoiler, suits the lines of the car with the new lights.

I think it would look good if you made the bonnet (where it meets the bumper inbetween the lights) follow the lines of the headlights, instead of it curving so much. And build the bumper to match the shape.

I know that its probably a lot of work for something so little but think it would clean the lines up alot as the curving bonnet looks a little wierd to me at the moment.

Is looking excellent though, and the worksmanship looks second to none!

its a shame that u cant carry with the car stuff as u got some skill there mate.... i would luv to be able to do wat u do

i'd keep the rear spoiler on the car unless ur getting a diff body kit (smoother kit)
and i like th headlights.... think it will even look better once the car is all done

ummm, well i have smooth the one line off the front bumper and thinking of smoothing the fog lights off the bumper etc and the ridge in the rear bumper will so also, so i am going for a smooth look with the car!!!

as for colour steve not really sure was wanting to do flip but with 3 different basecoats blended into each other front to back!!!

but on other hand am thinking of going for solid bright bold colour to start with to c how practical it is cos its soooo low, cant get the car on to are trailer without taking front bumper off, never had that problem before so dont know how long it will last before i knock bumper off!!!

front lights i know wot u mean bout curving bonnet down, that is the curve of the lights tho really they start to curve at the bottom! i am not totally happy with the bonnet yet but not sure wot to do!

i reckon get the rear lights off a skoda fabia- the facelifted 1 - looks pretty cool i think! http://www.autogaleria.pl/tapety/img/skoda/skoda_fabia_rs_2003_02_m.jpg

Just an idea. I wasnt too keen on JAG Corsa but I have to admit that so far what Ive seen of your car here mate, it could look quite cool - certainly a change from speedlines and a GSi kit

I think it looks strange without ANY spoiler. I would put the GSI one back on and smooth it in like you did on your other car mate.

But loose the top spoiler.
