thought id update how she looks now

That looks really good. Glad to see you finished it.

The only thing that's bugging me is the fit of the front bumper under the drivers headlight.... Is it a non genuine bar?
It would also look really good with the black/red Berlina pinstriping (if the door moulds were to go back on)

The VN SS foglights would be a nice touch as well.
