most of these flush headlite kits....aren't all that great...they look poorly made....and i dont even think they are even close to being DOT approved...u can always get a custom setup done but that will cost even more money....my personal fave is the FTO headlite setup done on an mr2 in california...theres pics of it floating in on of the threads in this forum.........

I am actually making my own out of carbon-fiber right now in a class I am taking at school. As long as you know the general idea of what you are doing on a program like Rhinoceros, of Solid Works you could create it on those prgrams and mae your own. The hardest part is making the mold for the lexan cover actually flush with the hood, fenders and bumper.

Yeah I used to know that guy. I think he sold it or is selling it. That car is soooooo gorgeous! Very clean job and very expensive too. I've seen it at 2 meets here in cali and have a couple of pics. of it, 35mm though . I agree most flushmount kits cost mad money and look like crap. Just go with the H-4 conversion (easy) or go with lowrise.

truleo.com ...... grr.... that guy angers me . I don't know if you guys read it or not... but that guys car died like 4 tests into the Ultimate Street Car Challenge bringing it in dead last. He was doing pretty damn good up until that point though.

http://www.sportcompactcarweb.com/fe...403scc_uscc00/

1 Nissan 350Z - Consistency wins. Again
2 Mitsu Eclipse - Not bad for a drag car
3 Toyota Supra - So good, so stock
4 Ultima GTR - Not your typical kit car
5 Dodge Viper - Power, power everywhere
6 Toyota Supra (red) - Street tires don't help
7 Nissan Skyline - So close, so far away
8 Audi S4 - Fire sucks
9 Mitsu Eclipse (black) - No boost costs dearly
10 Toyota MR2 - Blown head gasket


Dead last...
