Old one is alot cleaner and flows better with your stock body. Other one would look better if you had a kit, or better yet, an aggressive kit.

Cheers for the comments,

The bumper is having some work done to it so won't be standard. Headlight Washer jets(devil horns) coming off and new number plate arrived the other day so being mounted to one side(smaller plate).

The old grill has had loads of interest so might put it on e-bay seems the fairest way of doing things!!! but the new one fits over it perfect and makes the new one alot stronger so may leave it on!!

Don't know what to do about a rear boot spoiler!! do i take the old one off all together or replace with the aristo version???

Wheels are going in to be refurbed so they will look great this year
