Look up eogel in the RR/Autox section. He has the front from the bottom pic you posted. I'm pretty sure it's still available and was disussed somewhat recently, just can't remember who is making it now. It's a great looking front.

I wouldn't buy one of these for a street car. You'll hit on every downhill-to-level transition. These are better for a track car.

Of course, if you don't mind fiberglass repair and repainting all the time, go ahead.

Yeah, he may have to consider what kind of transitions he typically sees, it's not extremely low though. It does move the lowest part farther forward but it's probably OK as long as your not slammed.

Here is Ed's car. The extreme splitter is optional. And it's not exactly what's on the blue car but same idea.

I am, I just think that the front of that kit is ugly, especially the 4 big holes between the headlights.

Definitely not worth the money they'd want for it. I like the OEM fascia better myself. I like the OP pic and the red racer too!

Never saw a C4 with "shaved" lights. I'm surprised how good that looks!
