Looking great!! Not sure if i've missed anything but is there a nicer set of wheels going on?? I must say that the bonnet is looking great! Whatever you do tho, don't put silver mesh into it, should be black or nothing!!!

Not many e-series owners putting scoops on, good to see your having a go at doing something different from the norm. Looks trick!!!

yeah iv thought about it, but i reckon chrome would look better and suit the grill (im gonna put my ltd one on for now) and if it looks good with the ltd one then ill keep it. but yeah, wheels will go on later, chrome ones of course

Looking very nice. It's giving me too many expensive ideas :

Chrome mesh would look nice. I think the only cars that need chrome are high end modles and old VW.

No, chrome mesh will look horrible.

Paint the inside of the hornet mouth black and use black mesh

Looks awesome. Howd the color matching go.. no difference is there? I also agree with most here, black mesh would set it off nicely.
Keping the same wheels, or also updating them?

Nice work. It's good to see something different.

Another vote for black or no mesh.

yeah the color matches pretty friggen close and im happy about the quality apart from a run and a couple small things, also, there is NO pearl in the paint he put on!! i went aroiund today and showed him and he is fixing it next week, so i will be without a car for another week :( so yeah im pretty happy, the rear skirt has cracked again tho >.< the proplem lays in the skirt itself so im just going to leave it and one day down the track am going to buy a fibreglass replacement because the rubber just cracks and makes the paint look like anus.
