The modified front end was designed by Steve Pearce. He won a Bronze kit as a prize in a competition run by Kitcars and Specials magazine. Not happy with the look of the front end he made a bumper replacement. I believe that Harold was so impressed he put it into production, along with a modified rear bumper. Steve later styled the Gold convertible (I rather tongue in cheek described him taking a chainsaw to the Gold, it was actually a jigsaw, although the club website still uses my description)
Steve's car also had a small rear spoiler, not for any aerodynamic function, purely to visually widen the back.
