    I think they'd look better canted a little and raised up too.
    All in all, I dig it.
    I woulda gone totally '60s syle on my '34, but the wife just doesn't like that era. She doesn't particularly like my chrome slots or the Raders on her '60 Chevy.

    Tuck, it looks surprisingly good. First weird but then good. I made a sixties-style bumber but I don´t know if I´m going to use it. Your lights gave me some new thoughts.

    Hey Tuck,

    That thing looks awesome. I think that you are on the right track with the headlights not being canted, but I would maybe give them just a slight pinch in at the bottom. It almost looks like they are leaning in at the top in the last pic. I did a photoshop of the headlamps pinched in 2.5 degrees at the bottom and aired up the tire for you. I would maybe even go up to 3.5 or 4 degrees, just because it's kind of an optical illusion. Anyway that's just my opinion.
