Funny that everyone says version one... I actually prefer version two. To each their own though; You should do whatever you like best.

Never shift into reverse without a back-up plan.

Well so far between this site and the other one I'm on it seems to be dead even

I seem to be going back and forth and really decide what to do!!!

It was mentioned on version 2 I could put LED driving lights in the slim section

Pardon the ignorence, but why do you want those slits, anyways? Is it more of an aesthetics choice?

In version 1 i thought the slits could be the signal light...LED...and the lower (old signal holes) could be ducted to the brakes, but mostly asthetics

in version two, the signals remain stock but the slits would be used as LED driving lights!!

I think version 2 is functionally appropriate with the lower openings be used
as brake ducts.

Version 2 would be easier to make because the signals stay where they are.  However, version 1 has bigger "brake" ports which makes more sense I think.

Your O2? Isn't O2 oxygen?

Anyways, like Kevin and yourself, I prefer the sleeker appearance of version 2 as well.

Thanks for all the responses everyone

I have starred at the pictures a thousand times and I like both...don't know what to do

both have equal qualities and arguments as to do them that way!!

Any more opinions?

Excellent, I actually had an idea I was hoping to sketch out. Don't know where my lucky pencil is at the moment, but I'll draw it up tomorrow.
