JIMBOfred-Cheeky little black number.



  • to finish that front end off you need to get some black sign writers vinyl, it would cost about £3.00 on ebay for a small bit and then do the headlights like this, it doesnt effect the beam pattern much as they are designed to shine downwards

    thats what mine looked like with it on



  • Noooo not that drowsy eyebrow looking thing again :shock:

    Great pic cars looking great Jim I even like that bonnet vent 8) The correct size number plate will finish it off nicely :wink:



  • Thats looking great man, very different.

    If you're looking for 'eyebrows' I've got a set here that were stuck onto the silver Presso I picked up that you can have (if I can get them off).



  • reshaping the headlights on an mx3 gets rid of that alien looking eyes thing they have lol

    LIKE THIS



  • then it would look like an alien thats half asleep lol with them on



  • I personally love the bug eyes on the MX3 seeing as there the same shape as the side windows and the entire car infact (from certain angles) it just ruins the lovely curvaceous lines upfront…



  • Got loads of black sticky vinyl so might give it a trial. Was thinking about modding the bonnet with some eyelids as i have discussed in the bonnet mods thread. Although i was looking at her today and kinda felt the same way as youdirtyfox. Maybe it's not the right thing to do. Undecided



  • @cc23b24a92=djmarcopolo:

    PS. I thought i was bad at photoshopping. But thats a new level. lol




  • Thats not really helpng me. Still not sure how i feel. Might try on some different angled pics. Feeling slightly swayed towards keeping them standard atm.



  • dose look mean but i would leave them as they are or put projectors in thats just my view



  • Not sure if you have seen this one Jim:

    Its a little bit more sympathetic to the original design?!



  • Yes I'll take all three. Oh and there's an mx3 under there.



  • It does look better as above on the orange one. I knocked this up today but it really does look a little too aggressive. Not sure if i can do the other style without bodging it. Will have to have a think. But for the mo i'm quite happy without.



  • thats not too agressive, thats perfect for tailgating a 17yo girl on P plates in her ford KA :rofl:



  • Im with Dj tbf if you think thats too aggressive wait until i come up behind you in my gsi hahahaah youll have nightmares,..



  • Maybe. Very undecided. Might end up just going for it at some point. Although this pic was taken from my classroom window. Might give the children nightmares. lol



  • Ps. DJ if i'm gunna do any tailgating i'm gunna do it all out stuntman mike mckay style.



  • The orange curves it into the shape, yours doesn't, so it looks odd to me.

    On the subject of aggressive, there is a scooby near me that has the words MOVE OVER at the top of the windscreen, he's always good for a laugh by doing the speed limit.



  • Just enjoying the 3's superb handling taking a blind country lane bend at only about 40-50mph only to find postman pat sat waiting forever to turn right. Just a little dent in his bumper so he says he wont mention it but gave my details incase it's noticed. Just looking on ebay for a salvage headlight unit. So much for not spending money on it yet. And just when i was starting to be happy with that front end. Grrr



  • That bumper will polish out, the wing is easy as there is a few black ones for spares on fleabay to whack on there and the headlight if you get stuck I have one in the shed :D

    Sorry to see the damage but at least you were having fun while it happened and no-one was hurt :mrgreen:
