I would say fit the canards. It looks good but the big open expanse of bumper where the canards belong looks a bit too bare IMO.

Looking good though.

It looks good but the back bumper looks unfinished, it needs a lower lip on it to bring it down to a similar level to the rest of it.

Oh yeah, what an earth are those black things on the doors?? They look like some sort of aero device by how far they stick out.

I'd leave 'em off. Or at least put a pic up for us of them sellotaped on or something.

Btw, did you get your windscreen surround painted black?

And I also want to know wtf that thing is sticking out of the door...

Though come winter you can make some extra cash providing a snow plough service.

I think the canards are needed to break it up a bit.

Ya, about the number plate, had to put them slightly off centre, cant really think better place to put them without affecting the LOOK (have thought of all possible location ).
You could get a smaller plate.

I have to say they don't do a lot for me visually, but surely the canards are more about aero dynamics than cosmetic? If you buy a 'racing' front end, then surely you should include the aero attachments, regardless of looks?
