:undecided: Mike, everyone is entitled to their own opinion tbh.

I like the Vento front ends, but dont think it would suit my car. I wouldnt however go about slagging it off saying it looks sh!t.

Yeah, but the point is, the guy wants help, and then len posts slaggin it off etc. If you read the thread from page one. Its not on at all. His opinion wasnt asked for. Simple as.

Im just tryin to stick up for the poor guy who got a whole load of abuse for wanting to do something he wants.

Not called for at all. It dont matter wether its a vento front, or any other mod is. The point remains he asked for help, not abuse and negativity.

Wasnt having a go mate, was having a dig a Len too.

At the end of the day, Len doesnt like the Vento front end, Mike doesnt like Len's bodykit. That should be the end of it? Each to their own and all that.

Personally I think that they way you have your car is awesome mike, and the wheels just set it off a treat!


To the OP:

lol, im not joining the flock :(

i just like it for some reason!!
i feel isolated, lol

i liked my car before, but now the quads are no longer i want a change!!

and if i could afford to have the hellas back, id go on and buy a vtec classic mini for what its worth, just for a cheapish fix and a bit of difference i think its nice!!
sorry for rant but im not following any crowd as theres no crowd to follow where i live, lol, only sheep in the fields behind the house i suppose, lol. i dont think that will help my case :)

If you want a change, go for a change mate! Its your car, and so what if everyone has Vento front ends? If noone put a vento front end on, everyone would have the Golf front ends?! So what difference does it make? Either way you could be called a sheep but do what you want to do mate, its your car :)

ooh, think ive missed quite a bit!! lol

thanks for all your help and all of your opinions!!
i think everyone is entitled to there own opinion and their own tastes!!
i did say in my op that i just wanted to discuss it with people that are familiar with the dub scene,
plus i did do the search for quite a while!! but some things were a bit contradictory in the various posts, so just wanted a little confirmation!

ive decided to do the vento front cos ive never seen one and like it, so why not, lol

to mike, i really like what you have done, len its not my taste but at least its something different that i can respect the work that has gone into it :)

i wanna do my own thing and may start a project thread, as i think i want an almost rally look to it, which it already kinda has.... so all the wheel arch covers and bumper blacks, and mud flaps are gonna stay, and the vento front with an eyebrow would just give it that finish!!

thanks again all of ya!!

I'm going for the textured front - im running fully textured bumpers at the moment which came with the car from the factory and imo it's going to look good with a vento front eng. Eventually I'm going to try and get a textured top'd vento front bumper to give it the bigger look

will get pics up next month once she's been sprayed
