Has anyone made headlight covers? I need to make some but have no clue how to even start it.

 

[horribleR]

Do you have a headlight cover?

 

[imnatelol]

What exactly do you mean by "custom"? Are you looking for function, like a scoop or duct? Or do you want a design like, uh a unicorn head or something?

 

[tom550]

I want a unicorn horn on both.
I need to add a hump or something like that. I also don't want to destroy the covers that are on them. There's also no miatas being parted out around here to take them. I would look at getting scoops but I'm going to have a bit of electrical under them.

 

[horribleR]

That sounds like a lot of electrical stuff...

 

[tom550]

Any ducts that extent an inch further out near the back?

 

[mysteryskittle]

you can try the scrap yards first. Start digging!

A shop "miata specialist" takes all the miatas from junk yards and people then jacks up the prices on parts. They don't even have some covers

Craigslist and get some shipped? They don't weigh anything and they are cheap used. Search anywhere in Socal.. where all the Miatas are

I'm sure you can buy a NACA Duct (~$30-$40) flip it over and call it done. But it wouldn't look to good.

 

[tom550]

Haven't seen a single miata part out or parts on local Craigslist in months. I'll look around at ducts and maybe just seal off the opening or just cover the wires with something.

 

[uni]

do you just want two covers to chop up?

 

[tom550]

That or a way to just make some fiberglass ones or sonething like that.

 

[horribleR]

You could buy some fiberglass lids for less than it will take to make them.

I'm actually going to try something with spacers I might not need to get separate covers and keep it looking stock. Thanks for the help, I'll see how it goes.
