My little MS paint job on the chuki front .... Ive been wondering how this would look, mabey using a different set of turn sigs like a miata or something that are just an oval shape and leaving the vents open ...... but what do you think?

Somebody is suffering from the pignose withdraw syndrom, eh? I dont like. Ruins the clean sexy look of the chuki.

i thought about that first one, but thought it would be too much .. but that second one looks alot better, it would just take finding some turn sigs that would look right, right there.

I agree, maybe if I remove the Bumper Lights and convert the Fender lights into Turn Signals as Adrian's DIY Shows, I can make it work...

Maybe you should just buy a pignose bumper and then stick to designing interiors...

i think that looks pretty good, but it looks empty without the turn signals at the top.



EDIT: I also just noticed you changed your name back to vroom-chirp (which is what i was already used to). Good call on that.

i think the turn signals in the middle bottom opening mounted sideways on each outer edge would look good

I dont think the chuki front should be messed with. It fits the RS13 so well...

I mean, just think about it...
