Talking New Hood Ornament and new mods!

Feeling the pressure from Holmse's new mod, I just had to see what I could come up with that personified my way of life
Well, here is an idea . A bit pricey at $300.00, but I own the store, I can get a discount! And hey, the colors match real well!







I suppose one could place lamps in each orifice for signals and a brake light!


The Helmet give one ultimate speed too!



Actually folks went by and thought the concept was funny and I was weird. They are right!

The other new mods ( the permanent kind) are the bumper pads ( thanks for the link courthouse Deb! ), and the grill script.

Coming up:
I have ground down the posts on the 1955 repro chrome scripts and am putting scotch brand double stick indoor outdoor mounting tape on them. It took me about an hour to cut the tape on the first one, and I still don't like it. I want a smoot cut. Perhaps the 3M tape is less, uh spongey/gooey? I need a hard tape.. I bought ten new razors today and hope it takes less time on the second one. I hope to put them on tomorrow, but am a bit unsure of this tape.

Thanks! Looks like you may have some fun helms yourself, judging by the picture!

Tony's a larger lout, so he left his helm at the pub!
And we know how crafty those storm troopers are

Tilted forward and reduced in size would look great.

I agree with Holmes... You are welcome for the heads up on the bumper pads. Got mine and put them on and they look real nice. Here's a close up of one of the back ones taken from my cell phone. It really is centered...it just doesn't look like it from the angle I took the picture.

LOL, Them ain't mine... Those are the helmets of the 2 "robots"(Thomas Bangalter & Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo) of the House group Daft Punk

Here's the website for their latest album... Daft Punk-Musique 1993-2005

I WISH THOSE WERE MINE! Them things got LED's and they're programmable!
