I like it, it's got the "means business" look. Looks like it's been looked after, very clean, wouldn't take much to put it back to standard anyway, changing the headlights back would make it more subtle, euro rears look mint on red mk3s too.

Headlights being like this, aint as bad as two clear lenses in!! Though not keen on the yellow tint.
Fogs being yellow is acceptable as european spec "fiesta turbos" had 4 yellow fogs!
Golf splitter aint for me and nor is the wheels.
But i love a red frst and the front bumper looks mean as

Blast from the past with the yellow lights mate, quite popular in the 80's when I first started messing with cars.
The mods suite the car as it flows, plus being different is good bud

Not keen on the yellow headlights but it does look tidy.
