Hi
I agree with you. I've spoke to a few on here about the droopy nose on the JHC/DEON cars (and other replica's). Teo on here had access to a real dino and to be fair the replica's nose is only some 15mm lower than the real thing!! I think what compounds the issue is the swage line is too low around the front of the car meaning the bumpers are fitted lower than they should be. And if the bumpers aren't fitted correctly this makes it look worse.
Another factor is the whole rear deck/buttresses is low and this is more than !5mm. I believe it to be nearer 25/30mm by the time it gets to the rear of the boot. So side on the car looks to be drooping at both ends. If you take the rear to be right it only serves to make the front look worse still.
