It makes the Torana tail lights look ace. I don't mind them actually 🙂

i reckon with all that bumper mould and glass, and the big 'butt ugly flared guards' that it wont be long before it runs rotary.

damn! i gotta admit, ignoring the practicallity issues i quite like the work done in smoothing the guards and bumper, and to a lesser extent the sides, together, looks pleasantly smooth. as for the taillights. definitely not my thing. surely if going for new taillights, why not NB ones?!

youre right though.
i fit had original look wider guards, and some neat vw tail lights, then the effort to smooth it and joint he bumper would be a good look.

shows the fine line between something neat and pure crap!
