Just browsed the ads and found this http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/t... WHY would anyone fit those lights ? IMHO it makes the car less appealing.

I quite like them except I would have had them the same colour as the car in white. I saw this car at the BBWF and I thought it looked rather nice. Again, it's modified so wouldn't be right for the purist. Also does away with the pop up lights so no more headaches. It may even light up better at night as the Wedge headlights are a bit rubbish in the dark.

I think it's a nice concept although IMO the lights should have sat flush with the body....Nissan ZX has got it right.

Every time I see that car my brain thinks

- maybe as tony said if the light "pod" area was matched in white to the rest of the body it might be a bit more harmonious
Looks like a nice motor I really like it other than that

Naahhh - it's not for me.

I like the pop-ups - what cars can you get these days with pop-up lights? None, because they've been banned.

Talking of its looks, the back is OK I reckon, they fit in quite well, but I really don't like the headlamps, I don't think they fit with the style of the rest of the car at all.

But hey, beauty in the eye of the beholder and all that.

pop up lights are banned? how many 458 Italia's have you seen with a front number plate? Black number plates on post 73 motor?

Besides the lights, what is the wiring about in the last picture - self-ejection seat for the passenger? Considering the interior has been nicely blinged-up that is pretty tacky. Grady
