just wondering if anyone's pondered getting custom fitted driving lights? i really want some driving lights for my ef (venom front) but i think it looks a bit cheap sometimes when u just have some aftermarket lights hanging there. does anyone know of people that make nice custom fitted lights?

you mean in the brake duct vents? what about even getting some aftermarket lights, and then getting a custom bracket which fits in best? i.e. a rubber surround for the lights, which has been pre-fabed to fit perfectly into the brake duct?

you could have a go at making something up yourself i'm sure - get something from clark rubber or whatever you guys have over there - they'd have it in all sizes/shapes/colours - just a thought anyways...
