Would anyone be interested in something like this?

i have a spare right headlight that i can make something like this out of. It would probly be good for the track and it would be really easy to install, plus you would get a lot of air into the engine bay. I am just looking for a project to do that i can sell. Would anyone else be interested in a headlight like this for the lanos.

how much would you charge for it? and yes... yes i would

one other thing... would you be able to make it taper back to a 3" hole (as to easily hook to tubing)?

maybe...i was planning on just making it op though. that was it would make it a lot easier for me. but i will see whats going on once i start it. Right not i am cutting the whole in the headligth lense. it will be cut where the main part of the light is ( As seen in this pic. i am cutting out the spot where it is chrome in the headlight and it will be straight through.) you will get the idea when i post pics.

that would be very simple to do infact you wouldnt even have to destroy a head light to make it. all you would need is a little know how in fiberglassing

fibreglassing is not hard, plus you can use a headlight as a mould. Have you ever thought about making a pop up scoop like on the dodge superbee (i think), kinda like what the RX7 people do when they remove a headlight for intake?

i have a headlight that i got into an accident with....all the brackets are snapped off and the casing is cracked the lense is fine thats why i am using it. The headligth isnt being wasted at all. I was going to throw the hwhole thing out but i figured one day i might be able to use it for something. It would have been a waste of time to make a mold when i have a broken headlight.

that makes sense

The brackets are easy to reattach with a soldering gun.

When I hit another deer with my Leganza, I reattached the mounting brackets by melting it all back together.

hen they broke off the body shop threw out the broken pieces and gave me the headlight just in case the one on my car got smashed, so i could used this one as a temporary fix. I ended up using this headlight for my gineau pig when i was putting my headlights in the oven to painting paint them. this headligth was already torn apart so it wasnt like it had potential to go back on my car.
