Kit On Or Kit Off?
My '85 GL cabriolet is due to be completed next week and the dilema i now face is whether to have the BBS bodykit fitted back on or leave it off.
The wife is keen on the look without it whereas you don't see many around with this kit so i'm leaning towards fitting it back on.
The cars lowered and going to be fitted with some BBS rims which i'm in the process of polishing so its never going to look standard.

Chris,
Thanks for the comment.
The rims are actually mk2 16v ones. They're currently for sale :wink:

I would keep the kit but loose the eyebrow spoiler & put an original grill back ok.

Thanks for the comments.
The de-badged grill and eyebrow spoiler have been sold on to make way for a quad lamp grill with chrome surround.
Also had a smoothed bootlid which has also been sold and a new standard one is now on with badges etc.
