I am curious to see if anything has done anything really cleanly to add some additional front lighting to their Spridget.
I'm not restoring the car to "concours" or anything, and I do plan on modifying it to fit my liking. Therefore, I am open to just about any suggestion that looks good and functions well.
I've replaced the standard headlights with Silverstars. They are better, but I'd still like better light. I'd like to add some additional driving lamps. I also would like to run the car "bumper-less" as I love the look. So far, I have come up with three options to put some 4" 55W auxilary lights on:
1) As I'll be running bumper-less, open the mounting holes in the sheetmetal and try to find something to make a nice finish so it'll slightly resemble a 1st gen Camaro setup:
2) Incorporate them into the grill, like a Mustang:
3) I have a "push bar" or "rally bar" that bolts on with the bumper. If there's a way to have this on only, with the lights mounted to it, and have it look clean, that's an option. I'd worry about the mounting of the bar-to-vehicle looking ugly as there's no bumper to hide the mounting nut and whatnot.
I'd appreciate your opinions and any other ideas you may have.
