Rosa's Hornet mods

["Jeff Reeves" <jeffr@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

What's special about the hood? All I could tell in the photo was that it was
a darker hood and clearly doesn't match the rest of the car.

The spoiler isn't an issue, it looks fine.

Those driving lights (pardon my opinion) look tacky. There really isn't a
good way to put fog lamps on a Hornet and make them look reasonable. *IF* I
were going to add such lights, I'd have to use some from a Spirit/Eagle so
that they would at least be a "stock" modification and wouldn't look like
some cheesy aftermarket tack-on. You could probably fabricate some clamp on
brackets that would allow the Spirit/Eagle fog lamps to be used without
putting holes in the bumper, but I would mount them atop the bumper, in a
similar location to where they would mount on Spirit/Eagle models. 

I might not have said it before, but that's one hell of a beautiful Hornet.
Doesn't need much dressing up at all. It could be made to look really tacky
really easily by adding too much to it. There's something to be said for the
clean original styling. 

That's my $0.02 on the matter...
