I found the attached a while back. My neighbour is off to italy in a ciuple of weeks and is looking at pricing for me. I think that they are the nicest I have ever seen (swoon).

I wonder if I got some if I could make molds?????

They do look nice but have heard that the light output is affected by the lights hitting the front of the nose and not on the road... I have seen someone in the US forums transplant the RX7 lights to the front of the bumpers that will involve more work but it does look good :D

The lights that hit the nose are generally the 'flush' conversions that do not raise above the traditional lines of the bonnet (thus the bulb is way back and way low) - I think that the ones in the pic 'should' be ok because they are mounted higher and forward more.
