Quickie design opinion please
RazMan - 21/4/06 at 11:39 PM

I want to mount some driving lights but which position looks best? (bearing in mind that the headlights and side lights/indicators are fixed in position, allbeit with gaffer tape at the moment)

Option A means cutting new holes in the bodywork and option B means modding the grille. Please excuse the crudely photoshopped grille

Indeed.

b

or have them hidden behind the grille

I think less is more in this case

a) makes the car seem wider to me. I prefer it.


Arjan356 - 22/4/06 at 06:05 AM

def. B

Don't listen to all those stupid B's. A, without doubt!


gingerprince - 22/4/06 at 06:57 AM

a) looks "proper".
b) looks like those stick-on chav things from Halfrauds.

So that's another vote for A then


jimmyjoebob - 22/4/06 at 08:42 AM

Neither - clutters the clean design. You simply don't need them


jos - 22/4/06 at 09:04 AM

Definately A. As has been said before B looks like a Halfords boy racer no thought job.


Marlon - 22/4/06 at 09:08 AM

'A' looks thought out and intensional whare as I think 'B' looks like a bit of an afterthought. just my opinion though.

What about converting the existing indicator holes to driving lights and mounting some new discreet indicators pushed out to the corners?

Perhaps something from a sportbike?

A reminds me of tvr... very good look imho

Interesting idea but as I have only just got the front section remoulded to take the new lights I am reluctant to make any radical changes at this point.

Thanks for all the input guys - looks like I've got to get my jigsaw out again.

definitely a:

with B: the girll will need strengthening to hold the lamps and it will reduce air flow too.
