Could you show a picture of what the lights look like from the side or above-behind when in sleepy position? Is there anything, like gaps, that look funny when the covers are 1/2 to 2/3 open?
I sacond putting good lighting patter higher in priority over the lowest possible lid.
keep us posted!

I'll try and get a picture from the side next time I put them back in and I'll post it up when I do. As for gaps, I'm no totally sure yet since I haven't yet fixed the headlight cover onto the bracket (it's just sitting about where I want it in the pictures). The only gap would be in between the headlights and the hood, but there's one there on the stock lights when the lights are up. It should be less in these.

thats not paint....
Er, well probably, like A-Spec said it can be done. I doubt I'll be selling these as an option, but they could be bought seperately and added on later.

Those lights are nice!! Anyways can you stagger them a little more like the panspeed ones instead of just having both lights lined up next to eachother. Does that replace the whole assembly? Would you make those for money?

First of all, I didn't model these after ASP's, second, I made these just for the fun of it, third, I think they look better than Kevins, fourth from what I know-he doesn't really sell them anymore-sounds like his person is too lazy, fifth, I made these before Panspeed's even came out! Sixth, they are not rotordave's-he is just a friend of mine who put my pic. up, my name is Spyro, and whoever doesn't like them I don't really care! But I'll bet you I see better on the road than you!

I have a suggestion about the vertical alignment, which is basically that the lights should be at just about the same level. The reason I think that "works" is because it puts each light in the middle of the opening. I doctored your picture to show what I mean:

Oh, and I'm not the dick (good job, you spelled it right that time!) , I posted a picture and asked a question, you're the one that took it to petty name calling. Thank you.

I think I want these things done about as much as you want me to have them done. If I could quit changing my mind and leave things alone, I could probably have them done by now. They're close enough now that I could just take them to a machine shop and have them do the final adjustments (probably). I might go talk to them this week and see what they say.

hey Ryan,
here's how to put the HIDs in the hellas. The D2S are positioned perfectly this way and produce some great lightning. That's how my friend with the 240 did it.
