Talking of front ends, I have gone back in time. Crash myself into an old mini.

Agreed 100%. The pitcrew conversion doesn't fit the lines of the car AT ALL.

I think id prefer the 99/00 bumper. I like the opening on this one better.

Damn, that first car would look pretty nice if it was a little lower.
