To fit a genuine XR front, you'd have to change bumper and grille, lights and indicators, and the bonnet. Fairmont bonnets don't fit with the XR front.

He He, I was wondering when some one would say that...............

But usually it is said that the lights are ugly EXCEPT on ORSM5LTR's car where they look good

I love them on most cars as they are not very common, just like the clear tail lights

50 of your 60+ posts are either bagging us, saying how much better eafalcon is or just straight up arguing.

This Chick or Guy, lol, has a Red EL XR8, but no where near the quality of ORSM5LTR's beast................. she or he is just jealous.......

Now the normal reaction of a unit like SammyDen is when you say a comment like this is "well my car is better than yours DRHEMI" pffffffft, big deal! grow up and go back to the kids forum. :

why would i be jealous? i've already stated i think the headlights are ugly. if i thought the car was attractive there may be a hint of jealousy.
at no stage have i said my car is better then anyones, i know what my car is capable of and its no show winner.

i just think ORSM5LTR's attitude is about as ugly as his twin lights, lose the attitude and you may find there are some nice things to be said about it.

i've seen it in person and yes, its a damn clean car, i wish my paint was in as good condition, infact with standard headlights i'd probably have no complaints about the car.

I just figured it out why you think they are ugly, silly me, soz, you have the real deal............... and usually nothing compares to Genuine Ford.

Just the same as most ppl have std tail lights and not altezzas

Apologies for my comments, I had the wrong idea about you.........
