Why the rounded headlights? I dont get it

[Dead Body]

yeah, its to dangerous if the headlights are open and you hit a passenger, he can get hurt on the sharp corner,..... :rolleyes:

they also put only the firebird hatch on the trans am becaus the high spoiler can hurt someone.

idiots,..... :mad:

i think you mean pedestrian ;)

why not just leave the car european spec, and stick some us plates on there? or is there something im missing?

also, it gets worse. now europe is bringing about a law that says there must be at least 5 inches of clearance between the hood and any engine part/component underneath it. goodbye sleek, low hoods.

i think that the v-6 is the only one that had headlights like that.

ill look around and see if i can find my pics of it.

Even Transam have this kind of headlight, look:







he moddet the taillights, mirrors and the white parking lights on the front but the rest is original EURO

so you have 2 firebirds? saw the black one in your profile, they both look real nice, even if a bit like a UFO with all the extra lights [img]graemlins/stickpoke.gif[/img] at first I thought you were this guy http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/721282/1 but I can see the license plate is different so I guess not.

And i already removed the "extra lights", just the fender turn signals still on, dont want to repaint the half car :(
