I knew you would all like it !!! The XT lights just don't belong hey. The paint scheme ain't the best either. It should be Matt Blak with a set of 56' Dodge Lancer hubcaps. :

They've gone to the trouble of repainting, frigging about with the lights and tyres.. but left the bumpers grey?!

lol yes i must admit i dont like this combo of old on newish either, but in saying that i dont like Really big chromies either, i think a nice modest set of 18's maybe 19's suits the e series best

Normally I hate old wheels on new cars, but I reckon that looks good!

The height and colour work surprisingly well with the wheels on that EL.

I had an EL in that colour and hated it, but even the colour seems to work on that thing.

The pro stars would look heaps good on a EB ED I reckon. EB XR8 is the Aussie equivilent of the fox body mustang in my eyes. Set of ProStars and a bonnet cowl and I'd be rapt. Oh, and I need to get another EB XR8 lol
