2 and 4 look very similar.

The twin lights don't quite look right as there is too much fill bellow the lights and the bumper.

Under the bumper as the front has a more squared off guards etc I would be tempted to go for the more squared off look rather than the rounded look of 1 & 3

im a bit partial to the twin head light, ever since i saw it done on wraithknights(mike) van - pic 1, i thought it was cool. have actually managed to collect a few sets of the twin rectangle headlights myself to n was thinking of either going with twin or quads kinda like some of the yank vans - even photoshopped a pic to see how it looks - pic 2. thou saw an american custom van that has given me a bit of a different idea using two different sets of headlights

1 and 4 like the way they used 2 sets of lights on 4. I am partial to round lights, twins like the HZ / HX monaro used.

I recon it depends on the other body modifications.
Standard rounded beddy body,s look good with round lights
(I prefer twin round)

But if the body is modified with square front spoiler n guards , n big square side windows etc
Id go square headlights.

Ive never liked twin square above each other as it
Looks likea chev.

Just my opinion though, each to their own.

I like chevs, but their just too hard to come by in Aus
Ive always loved beddy,s

Cheers marty

I like the way they came out of the factory. Bull bar and driving lights purely for functionality for me. But as MTY said, "To each their own."
