I prefer the facelift front. As above its looks more aggressive. You need some tinted side lights to finish the look off imo..... (something I too need to purchase )

CREWJ

Definitely the facelift. But I think you need the latter bumper to finish it off

Looks good on that bumper imo.

If he was to get the later bumper he'd need the later v5/6 grille too!!

CREWJ

I just noticed that when he posted the next set of pics

I am in the middle of face lifting mine as I like the more aggressive look.

I've always preferred the pre-facelift myself.
It looks more original to me whereas the facelift
looks like an after thought.

Preface lift! The original and the best! Although I am a bit bias

it looked tidy before but i think the face lift looks better

A complete facelift does look more aggressive, but with original bumper, only ever looks half-done.
However, everyone does a facelift - loose the crowd and keep it original, especially if you're keeping the low spoiler

On yours I'd leave the bumper as is but get the fog covers and splitter as above

Defo facelifted but even better with a facelift front bumper

I disagree, mine has the facelift bonnet but with pre-facelift bumper. Mine like most late '96- early '98 left the factory like that........

Agreed, well at least the fog covers anyway.

i like the pre face lift above with the fog covers and skirt so im going that route 92-96
my front ends up for sale so i can get my OEM bonnet repainted

Keep the facelift IMO and get the splitter and fog covers.

Mine below, I'm changing my splitter soon though.

Put the prefacelift bonnet on with grille and use the facelift lights

Prefer the look with front fogs, the covers make me think its the cheaper one. lol.

I`m seriously considering getting crystal lights for my prefacelift as I think they look nice.
(Shame they never made preface crystal lights)







Even use the facelift grille??
