sorry about stealing the pic but it gave me an idea. Can you give me a dimension between the hood and thetop of the headlight cover? Where the cup is. I was thinking of a recessed headlight in that area.

I just measured it and there is about 3 1/4" at the outer edge and 3 3/4" at the inner. That's free space below the lid.
I think it would be cool if the cover swung down at the back to expose the headlights. There must be something already available that could be fit into the space. I know I've seen other cars using a similar shape. 300ZX comes to mind for one. If I'm not mistaken Dave Cafro already has something like this on his 914. In order to meet the height rule one just has to raise the ride height a little before inspection. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |
