What's steve building now?

Post by smorison »

Ok guys,
here we go I'm building something for my car, as some of you will have seen i'm looking for a broken headlight.

the first person guess what it is i'm building will win one of those 3D Embossed FTO stickers (or an item of similar value from the FTO Shop)

ummm, is it a set of ead lights that alow xray vison? or maby head lights with cloulerd coatings in maby green or blue? or maby your just going for a nostalgic look of the broken down old bomb that can floor anyone at a red light?
or maby your adding an extra set of lights on your car that face out a right angles to your car that piss off other drivers?

hmmm cant think of anything else so i hope im close...hehehe

:lol: Some sort of cover that can go over them with FTO written on it somehow (like the brake masks)...?? - which I am assuming would have to be removeable??

I'm gonna assume that my other guess of something like the tardis was incorrect!!! :wink:

Hmm, a home made fitting for a HID bulbs maybe? Or it could be that your changing the type of bulb the fto takes...

Don't think Steve is about rice, so i don't think he would just do it for the look of it...

aww man there are some ideas here which are soooo tempting to do...


i'm not going to give the answer until the project is completed (or i give up on it) ... . either way the person who guess correctly wins a prize. :)


and no i'm not going to give any hints.

Well, if were aloud to guess more, then here it comes.
I was gonna buy one of those 3D decals like the day day Steve started this, so now i have to wait till Steve decides to tell us...

1) He wants to make a mould, for maybe a CF headlight thingo 8O

2) You could make a headlight that is like a CAI, so on track days, you could swap it over, and get more air! lol :oops:

hmmm he wants a broken headlight so i'm guessing he first wants to fix the headlight 8O and maybe he might try to chrome the inside surroundings of the headlight.
