I was going to mold these trailer signals behind the grill, but changed my mind. Im going to buy those small side markers you see on those VW's and mold those with fiberglass behind it the mesh.

I actually .. *laugh* .. wanted to make the whole car carbon fiber ..

And may still do that one day if i get the money ... =P

It would cost the same as a fancy paint job ... Only ..... Take 60+ hours more.

Damn Dan, that would be too cool, I would love to see something like that. Almost as funny as the front end I made with a friend (back in the college/drinking days) for my Ford Bobcat out of MDF..... I tell ya, the thing was so jacked in the air in the end the tires were barely on the ground.....
