looks good but as said, i'd paint the grille too
also, if i weere you, i'd change the headlight bulbs - they look a bit yellowy imo
and i would change the indicator bulbs to the chrome ones rather than having the bit yellow bit in the light

So I found some paints and primer and as it was hot..I got down to business, the torx screws on the grille were all rusted and seized (wouln't take their size hex bit) so I had to get the next size up and hammer it a little in to each one and got them off !
