    Based on the angle that the bottom on the bar is rising at, that could be attached to the bottom of the bar. Id make that a separate piece though as the brand and design of the exhaust would impact on shape.

        Yep i'd give a left kidney for that bar I think it would look okish on black you'd get the reflection of the road and that might make it more visible.. if not you can sort of see it at an angle anyway.. makes the car look 10 beers younger. :P

        oh .. i've taken that little square box out of my custom lights & it's painted over anyways.. I should be okay though since the new light globes have built in reflectors..

        I like it even better without the DB9 strip across the lights .. FTO lights are already nice, so no need to try & make them look like DB9's IMO

        I really like this, but would it look any good in silver? That's what I am pondering...

          So is likely to be a real design or just conceptual? 'Cus if it's real I'm in! (provided it doesn't annihilate my bank haha)

            My point if you read from memory he had a guy in cambera make them he made the main part but got some one else to make the copys hence my point he should do it all and make a profit for him self rather then some one else would also be able to charge less as there would be no mass mark up

            wouldnt it have been easier to just edit your post and make it correct? rather than trying to explain why you spelt it wrong? :lol:
