We used to hire ex-waitresses in our business. Why? because they knew that a client could want his eggs any way he wanted them and it was OK ! He wasn't weird or bizarre or had lost his marbles, of course in HIS opinion. But, if we didn't have to kill for him, steal for him, or do anything illegal, we could serve him... 

You do that driver side marker light like that, you have to carry the look through. All blacked chrome. Or all but the grill over the engine. You'd want to go with a matte finish on the body. Or bare carbon fiber. Cut windshield. Mod wheels @17" with 50s or 40s all around. No bumpers. No nerfs. Maybe body-colored bumperettes. Slammed. On and on it goes.

 

It could be a cool look. But it's like Mr. Miyagi said: a little karate is worse than no karate at all.

Here's the drivers side. Pretty simple to do. I cut the bars out of the grill, used the Dremel to grind out the remaining "stubs". Removed the chrome light bezel. Sanded the light bezel and grill frame, finishing with 400 grit. Rattle can paint.

Stole this idea from Dr. Clock...I went to Home Depot in the roof gutter section there is black wire mesh material for blocking leaves etc from roof gutter. 3' sections, under $4.00. Cut to fit behind the grill frame, using the frames 3 mounting studs to hold the mesh and the grill frame tight to the body.

Art, I like it...yet I also like the originals too. Gives it sort of a 'Outlaw' look.

Bill;

 

If after examination of the close up, & you are still interested. I'll send you the blacked out horn grill and the black mesh screen.  I'll cut a 2nd piece of mesh for your other side. So you'll have to paint your 2 light bezels and cut and paint the other horn grill.

 

If so dialog me with your address.
