Hmmm... not sure. I think they look better from an angle than they do from straight on.
Makes the car look more American too imo. It makes me think of a Lincoln Town Car, despite not really looking like one that much!

Mondeo's give him a boner. The mere mention of "TDCI" and "torque delivery" get's him worked up.
He did the same on his ST200 and as much as it kills me, he did a good job and it looked well. IMO.
Yeah mate, just nosying through now, crackin'!

Agreed, i tried to get it off today, but its stuck like concrete and my hands were bastard freezing after fitting the lights. infact, im going to debadge it all together, mondy and ghia x badges off the boot lid, and paint the grill black. the only badges im leaving on are the standard V6 badges on the wings as there quite subtle.

You know you're just jealous Neil because you couldn't handle the power of the TDCI!
Def think black eyes look better, it makes the lights look less massive!

i like them, id of done it to mine if i didnt have the morrettes in there, if you do lower it, take a look into the camber adjustment kit eibach do, mines lowered and on 19s and i go through tyres in less than 2k and mines only lowered a little bit, so new year its getting the camber adjustment kit, so ill keep 2 steels on for now as im not forking out for tyres again just yet lol
if you go for a set of wheels then id say you need 18s minium as the arches are huge on the mondeos

Thas the one thing thats always put me off MK2's dan, the headlights. ive always been a MK1 and MK3 man. i was bidding on a set of morettes on the old bay of e, but i bid Ł155 and they went over, so i took the second, much cheaper option of blackeyes.
