They look very good. Now, not many people would notice this (especially Gareth), but I have this eye for detail. I think you may be missing some lights. Just a hunch, but worth checking! You may neeed to adjust your bonnet as it looks slighly high as well. Sometimes the panel gaps on these cars are all over the place!
Your car looks far too clean! Your obviously not driving it enough!

I bet you have. I saw one the other day. Along the scuttle at the corners of the bonnet, it was fine. In the midle of the bonnet, you could get your fingers betwen the bonnet and scuttle due to the bonnet being so high! Something very weird going on there, but looks like the scuttle ends had been replace and made waay to high!
