Hiya,

Recently I have been looking at a project Speedster, with some mods. Such as headlamp, taillamp and side indicator lighting. There is a French company called PGO that is making a Speedster II style body that I like.

Let me see if I can upload these images here so you might give me a heads up if any of you have done these sorts of mods to your bodies at all.

Thanks,

Charlie

This is the headlamp mod, looks much cleaner if you think about it. Check it out.

Yeah man, as far and that headlight goes, it really does seem like a very smooth job! I do like it's looks. This of course would look primo, in my own un-informed opinion on a flared Speedster. I think the stock or vintage ones look just fine with the headlamps and such.

What I am wondering is if the headlamp was 'formed' or glassed in, or if it is stuck in the hole that way and manufactured to just sit in the way it does. I din't know enough about body work to look for design que's. Hence posting here for the fab up fiber/composite workers top give me a heads up.
