Do what now

I was thinking some sort of Hot Rod project where it becomes an original feature

To me it just seems wasted on the Pontiac, it may be the lighting in the picture but it almost looks Amorphic ( if that's the right word ? - As if it's a growing living thing which is changing from the Jetliner to a being )

Bit like dyeing it's hair ginger.

I wonder if you could make your own in the shape of your own head/face?

They look great, but this one isn't straight.

I like the fact that you can illuminate them.

Subtle in the daytime, cool at night.
