Faces

Post by Vortex O'Plinth »

With their almost ubiquitous headlights and radiator grille nearly all cars present a 'face' with one expression or another.

Despite its usual rather 'aquatic bottom feeder' look there are perhaps moments when the SP250 has an almost aggressive appearance...

...although the more recent Veritas RS3 does seem to have moved the game on.... :o ;)

I agree, although I think the SP250 without a front bumper looks like a tame goldfish, which is why I prefer my Dart with its bumper and over-riders which looks like a shark.
I can imagine that a driver might feel the aggression as I race up behind him.

Its all a matter of opinion, personally I like the front end with or without a bumper (though on my car below I have removed the bumpers). Also, my own opinion, I am not sure about having both the bumper and A spec side flashes, either one or the other, and over-riders should be present on bumpers both at front and rear.

As stated above just a personal opinion/preference.
