headlights?
does anyone know of a kit to eliminate the flip up headlights?
i was thinking about doing this but i am not sure how it will look with the callaway aerobody. just an idea so easy on the flames.

Yes, but it costs $999. Still want info? Please tell us about your Callaway. (Assuming since you were able to obtain an aerobody.)

http://www.breathlessperformance.com... and I don't like the look. it is perfectly flush with the hood, not slightly raised as it is on the C5s...
I (and scorp) have converted to the Hella kit... Except Scorp has added different bulbs. I will, when I get money again... I mean - a job again...

Hella kit is just glass that fits in the stock location with replaceable bulbs. Brighter and easier to change in the future. Mine are on order.

Re: headlights? (horsepwrrulz)
thank you for the responses. what would you like to know scorp? the price the quality etc. yes you can order it from callaway for $7300 + shipping. it is not for the faint of heart will probably run almost that again to have it installed and painted. no you can't order just the front bumper. i tried many years ago when the kit was only $6000. it does not come with the hood vents that was for turbo cars only from what i have been told. however i have not tried to order them. they may sell those separately. there really isn't a whole more than that i bought it because of the aerodynamic advantage.

Well I just assumed you have a Callaway car since you were able to obtain the aerobody. I love the Callaway cars, so I wanted to hear about it. :)
