Anyone see this pic?

Yeah, another photoshop. As much as I hate to say it, hideaways as we knew them might not be possible. I'm sure that GM has something up its sleeve to get hideaways on it but... We'll see if it happens.

 

A headlight setup where at some point its covered in any way is now illegal.

 

WOW! That is so hot.

I've gotta go change my underwear now.

I love the exhaust idea! How do we fast forward the next year and a half?

 

When the headlights are off? Wouldnt that make flipup headlights illegal?

 

Yes, for new vehicles. I dont think anyone can stop you if you modify them yourself though.

 

The whole popup headlights thing I could find is this little tidbit??

so maybee popups are not allowed but inside fender or bumpers?? Maybee?

Would like to find out. That photoshop looks amazing and if GM could pull that off with the headlight covers. WOW

 

That has to vary from state to state, right?

 

well it depends if its a local or federal law...

 

The only way it would be a federal law is if it states that any automanufacturer can not include a set-up that is at one point covered in some way. The Federal wouldn't have any jurisdiction to mandiate how you can or can't modify your car. It is like window tinting, or lifting a truck... all varys by state.

 

Man that is Smoking! I hope Scott & the crew see this!

 

That picture obviously leads you to believe the car is using LED headlights. Which haven't been perfected just yet, but if they were I dont see why a setup like the one above would be restricted...

The grill pieces aren't obstructing the light because the light is being generated by LEDs which are totally between the pieces... Hell I dont see why you coudln't design a narrow rectangular casing like a Hella FF75 to go in between the vents that would sove the problem the same way.

Anyway, from the factory all thats unlikely, but Im sure the aftermarket will have something out.

 

Awesome chop. I'm kinda liking the side exhaust.

 

I hear ya Casull. Thats the thing man. no one knows?? Is it a regulation..and if so I would imagine it would be a national one for car manufacting. But its kinda weird that all the cars that were popular or known by the pop ups. They changed them to fixed lights.

Like this other snippet I found
You got me man..who knows??

 

There is a pretty strong rumor that they are looking at giving the C7 pop-ups again, due to some complaining from the die-hards. So I'm not sure about there being a law against it.
