Finally wired up one of the led light modification I have been planning for the stock HHR lights. Sure seems to change the face of the car.

Thank you Mike! Definitely looks less friendly than a stock HHR

How about some details on your headlight treatment?!?!? Looks very cool.

Thanks guys!
The led light is actually mounted externally. I made a fiberglass form that overlaps the headlights slightly and extends rear ward over the tops of the fenders. Eventually I will be detailing the surface before sending them off to be chromed.

Busy weekend of further locking in the final design elements. Lots of tweaking the body lines on the sides and roughed in the fiberglass for the pillars. Still many hours of refining to go.
