Yeah that was what I was thinking too... And with the boot welded up how ru going to change any bulbs in ur rear lights (sorry to be sooo practical!  )??
Other than that I think it looks good  but I've already said that enough times fella!

i was thinking bout the centre bit
as itsa a show car can you not get either a big griffen or opel badge then cut into the bumper/grill so the badge sits there but there is holes on the inside of the badge if you get what i mean
then stick a neon behind so it shines thru
would be tricky but as its a show car ive never seen it done

i like that photo shop of the front, i have just spent 3days doing that front peice tho - lol, not sure if i can shape the bonnet down at that angle tho, amgle think is 2 much! will look into it tho!
not got a pic of the back from further away cos its not big in there and takes half hour 2 get it out of the shed cos its all borded up 2 try and make it warmer in there and safer!
as for painting it, not sure wot i am doing yet, i wanna do it myslef but have just been contacted my bodyshop and they are intrested in doing em a deal and spraying the car! c wot thay come up with really!
hoping the boot is not gonna crack, it was welded up b4 i got the car so hope its been done ok! i am expecting some parts 2 crack really, will b very lucky if it dont, the one arch started 2 last week, but there was play in it, sorted it now, think u could kick it VERY hard now and it wud not move:-)
as for changing the rear lights will just mean getting 2 them from inside the car no great hassle really! no more hassle than taking my whole ice apart like in the green corsa at the moment! hehe

ok so how about if i go like that photo shop but just cut wot i have on here along the line and still have the surve on it, wud that work people??????
have also for new front brakes 2 go on front, disks on back but not got handbrake or it all conected up, also welded up the rear spare wheel well2!
as for being close 2 being painted, no where near, its all pretty rough, gotta keep smoothing it to get it all perfect! gotta stay pactent! not easy tho

dont think air intakes or scoups will suit with the lines of the bennet! like the idea of theat other photo shop but seems shame 2 re shape the jag bonnet, and its scary welding on the bonnet, very easy 2 warp it as the bodyshop i c found out! lol
