Thanks Vaughn! Far to kind.
Main headlight bucket is done, now to start cutting in for the lights.
Used the stretchy fabric method to create the compound curve for the buckets.
Pics of how the brake ducting hooks up.

First coat of poly primer on. Going to be one beady eyed bastard. Hard to see the contours at this point/color/lighting. More when done and on car again. Tested headlights, and finally have 100% beam out of all 4 lights!
soooooo.... Kinda like the original design? *shrug*
If you call completely different shape, different lens, different housings, the same, then sure. The shape of the fender and the location of the tire, only leaves one single spot to put the main beam. Other than that location of the main driving light, it is completely different.
Thanks Joe.
So, here it is. Liking it so far. The drl and blinker will be recessed in. Lens covers next.
Thanks Mark.

I believe you shared with us somewhere the type of foam you use to shape designs and all....can you refresh my memory where was that discussion.
You have obviously made it a science of art however you do it. I have some work coming up so plagiarizing your technique works for me.
Thanks

What is the over/under that Scott keeps this design?
I think the head light is now out of sort with the shape of the fender.
Fender is pointy and headlight bucket is spoopy round at the front.
The rear is notched and again does not flow with he fender.
The original design you had matched the fender nicely.
To me the two don't match.
You have excellent construction skill BTW.

I agree. Having the headlights inline with an led strip on one side that followed the line of the fender looked a lot better than this design. But that's just me. Fine craftsmanship!

Will this nose be able to use the same lights that otherwise be used on the OEM nose? Very nice alternative to the original piece. I especially like the radiator exhaust outlet treatment.
Good work. I was wondering how you find the time? After all don't you young guys spend all your time partying? Scott has a great group of friends..................and a great house for a party!!!!!
