I customized my headlight covers

Hi guys,
I made some 69 RS inspired headlight covers a few years ago and decided to change them up a bit. I'm pretty happy with them, what do you think?

Looks like you did a great job with it. For a show only car it would be pretty fantastic!

Thanks guys. I'm pretty excited with them. I have a big show that I'm going to this weekend. Hopefully these will help my car stand out.

It kind of reminds me of the new mustang a little also. What I was going for was the Hot Rod Camaro concept renderings that they did when GM first announced that the car was coming out. I'd like to make the "light line" look solid straight across instead of being able to see each individual LED. Any ideas on how to accomplish that? I wonder if just sanding them would do it???

Sanding and pulling the led's away from the cover should help. Our light pipes would be great. ;-)

It looks great! How about close ups for the fit/finish of your work. =)
