Fog lights (Yes, those are fog lights) used for head lights is a STUPID IDEA, it's DANGEROUS, annoying to others, insufficient lighting and ILLEGAL. If anything, use the kit only for the surround and buy REAL head lights (such as Hella 80mm) and throw those fog lights out. Unless of course its a show car and will never see the road.

I saw a thing similar to this on a car show on tv ages ago. They did cool stuff like cutting flame designs out of thin foam and putting them under the fabric. Looked awesome when the fabric was glued to it.

thanks for the compliments. Now that you mention it, I have seen flame and geometric shapes on hot rod interior doors, usually under tweed. It's pretty cool how much you can do for the fun of it on these nonperformance parts of a car.

If you do this yourself, feel free to ask for any clarification on what I did.

Yeah, I thought about putting quad headlights in the door panels, but I think you are right. They would be totally wrong for a fc.
