Uhm.... no looks horrible, and those bicycle like indicators on the bumper are not so nice.

Eeeeew! Not nice! :bn:

I prefer this one, only because it's so bizarre, not that I'd ever do it. Spotted this bug in Maadi in Cairo:

You can get one of these cyclops lights for a split screen from Lust For Rust in the UK. As strange as it looks I kinda like it. A bit worrysome when going into those underground parking areas though.

Oh, and then there's the law in S.A. which states that any spot lights may not be set higher than the headlights.

Interesting to see someone's custom making those now. The first ones to appear on buses came off 1930s GM trucks. Despite myself, I kind of like them as well.
