Above: In it's original looking but very good condition paintwork this ED Fairmont Ghia stood out but in a stealth kind of way - and it wasn't until you got up close that you started to notice the myriad of tricks used here and there.   Things like the EF mirrors & NF Fairlane side window chrome trims & body side protection moulding and clear blinkers!  Okay, so the bonnet hinges weren't so subtle...they kinda like smacked you in the face - but the effect was worth it!

Above: After market headlights looked very classy - as did the 'Ghia' insignia inset into the lenses!!!  There are just more and more of those subtle little details everywhere you looked...

Above: 20" in size, and 50" in impact - these rims suited the classy looks of this 'mont perfectly!  It's great to see not everybody has to go overboard to achieve the impact they desire - especially with the EA/ED's classy looks straight from the factory.  It's a pitty though that this particular example was parked the way it was - shelter and all.  Yeah, I'm sure it kept his car cool, and saved about 8 hours of fade - but let's just say the contrast issues it introduces makes it DAMNED HARD to get a decent photograph!  

Above: Looking this good, who could help but try and slip in another shot of it?  And despite my frustrations over the photographic issues introduced by the shade, it wasn't a hard effort to appreciate the work and dedication that has gone into this particular modification scheme...
