Hello all,I am looking to get a fake headlight that acts as an air intake, does anyone know where I can get one from? I will PM vitesse_tuning to see if he can make one. If so, would anyone else be interested? Here is what I was thinking of;  Cheers ________________________________________ Chris1999 China Gti6 Supercharged  [Fun car] >>Project Thread<<2000 Bianca 306 Diesel [Work runabout] |

Here is what I was thinking of; Cheers I may be wrong but I believe that putting holes in the bumper does not aid air flow and also to get the best air flow into something you need to have a reverse funnel affect - ie smaller hole at the front - its something to do with the air swirling around and back out if its the other way round ? ? ? Just what I have been lead to believe  |

From what I am led to believe, it would be legal to drive it like that during daylight hours? ie, I could swap it over, so could run like that for trackdays, and change it back to a headlight after? bigbadbowen wrote: I may be wrong but I believe that putting holes in the bumper does not aid air flow and also to get the best air flow into something you need to have a reverse funnel affect - ie smaller hole at the front - its something to do with the air swirling around and back out if its the other way round ? ? ? Just what I have been lead to believe I have heard this also, I will not be cutting holes in the bumper. Just posted that picture to show the headlight idea  ________________________________________ Chris1999 China Gti6 Supercharged [Fun car] >>Project Thread<<2000 Bianca 306 Diesel [Work runabout] |
