I'm not sure I've ever seen that taillight solution before. Cool!

I’ve seen similar, just not the size of the dagmars being used here!

After playing around with options for the front bumper I finally conceded that I have nothing that can really tie in to the rear treatment, style wise. I finally settled on using the kit front bumper as it is the best option I have at this time. I thought about using a few of the narrower amt corner bumpers from the parts pack, but it leaves the entire mis section of the front pan showing and is lacking in visual appeal. Having settled on using the kit supplied front bumper, I am not sure that the 50 style Dagmar‘s on the back will be a cohesive design. I came up with one other rear treatment I like and I think is slightly more in line with the front, but still only to some degree. I would like to hear opinions on either look, or even ideas for the front that may not be too expensive to acquire, as in not a rare expensive kit. I have also not addressed the B pillars yet because I have not decided if they are staying or going. Here is option 2 I am cogitating on. I am pretty sure I can drill out the center piece to add the brake light to the bumper. I also changed the attitude of the frenched headlights by removing the revell extended buckets and rebuilding them with angle cut tube, I believe they are less extended on the rear than Revell’s but with a considerable change at the fender line. The top has been shaped in, but the bottom has to be filled and shaped still to blend in the addition.

I like the new, smaller rear bumper mockup! And the angled headlight mod is cool too. It would go well with angled B-pillars or a hardtop, depending on what direction you end up taking.
