    It fits. I just need to attach the mounting points then make the face(s). My friend Lewis at Oreily likes it. Looking at how his was set up gave me ideas for other things, but not for now. He has a fresh air tube connected to the back side of his grill going to his air cleaner. :scratchchin:

    I think the driving lights are sweet. I wanted to do that. My inspiration is those pony lights.
    You need to convince a customer to get your grille center design for their gate, pop out 2, and charge them for R&D and trial and error...

    Frankie, I build gates for a living. I have to represent. That shield weighs like 60 lbs including the lion head. I had to make sure it wouldn't fall off and it has to clear the post as it passes it. I did use my vinyl top glue to glue down the colored materials used, so it has some Comet it anyway :D

    Would you like the skulls to be the blinkers? I bet I could do this. I need more time to get done with the first stuff. I hope to have something within the next week or two. Joplin is around the corner and I finally got some work lined up.
    What are the red x's in the corners?

    sequential blinkers starting at the center star going out star by star towards the direction of turning desired. once the light gets to the skull, the skull mouth opens and shoots blu flames and says "Turning <insert direction>"
