So, I was bored today and started playing with ideas for my car.

Obviously the editing is bad, but I think you get the idea. So what do you think?

Not bad but i Prefer having the turn signal lights..

I see what you were going for, A nice clean look.
I'd put color matched grill in around the emblem and below (actually, I AM going to)
That could work if you converted the side marker to signals

Yeah, I was thinking I could convert the Side markers, and put some signals down in the lower grill, well, where the lower grill would be.

man i wish my headlights fit like that.......maybe one day

btw that's kinda what i wanna do to my grill, and it's actually what nate's new camry has (spectra's cam) excpet he painted that insert silver and then put some mesh behind it, and it looks real clean, i think if i do that it'll look great on a jet black car.

Looks like a V6 Mustang....

I say go with it and add some fog lights

Really? today I was looking at them today thinking that they were messed up

I would most definetly be putting mesh in teh grill and lower opening, that is one of the details I haven't thought about yet.

pretty clean idea. grab some bondo an go for it

Ive considered removing those posts from the lower part of the bumper, but then isnt it likely that the bumper would sag?

***prnc_chrmng*** · 04-10-2005, 10:50 AM

no i dont think that it would. the OEM plastic is pretty good, i broke and bent mine in an unfortunet accident and it still went back to its origianl shape. plus, filling in the other holes i think (if done right) would only re enforce it.

Grayguy · 04-10-2005, 11:03 AM

I thought about the bumper saging too, but I figured If i was putting lights down there I was gonna have to break out The MIG and fabricate some kind of reinforced bar right down there anyway to mount them to. SO that could be tied in to the bumper for more support. The only problem now is figureing out where to put the front licence plate...
