(it sure does look flatter in that picture though... it must be the angle and the white paint.... the good news it that you're getting the huge roof-to-body offset that you fell in love with at the autoshow!) (oh, and concept car headlights don't really work on the street either..... they don't put out much light and if they do for more than a few minutes they melt.... you have to test real cars with real headlights)

Hmm, could be the angle and or paint... I've heard, "
problems with the fuel tank and collisions" could be the reason for a side install too. But really all your doing is keeping the filler opening in the same vicinity-- just tilting it 70-80 deg.
Don't see how that's any safer... Whatever, just thought it was very cool on the concept and would like to see it stay.
