Default rally inspired lights?

ok so i searched and found a few but not much.

what iam thinkin is to eather make a light bar to hold two 8" hella or piaa lights in front of the grill on the hood....or now my question is what do you think about molding them into the hood.
i have a carbon fiber hood on for summer. and now its getting colder for winter i have a "crap" hood that has a dent right in the front and not the color of my car so iam thinkin of molding some lights into the hood. kinda like the sti rally cars do.
i will see if i can find a pic to help you imagin on the audi.

iam just makin my car into a fun winter car this winter. i want to find some bright mud flaps(red). crank the coilovers all the way up and put on my blizzak treads on.

discuss..

the same reason you do anything to your car, to be different.
they aint goin to be HUGE there 8 inches or so. and they are goin to be more or less even with the front of the grill just have "humps" that will go back into the hood a bit.

idonno?

I really dig rally cars too. I think it'd look sweet, and since you have an extra hood it'll:
A) be way easier, and you can take your time doing it.
B) be easy to take on and off as you please
C) if you do it and it sucks or you don't like it, just scrap the idea and the hood

I say go for it. It might work out to be BADAS$

hmmm thats a tough one. personally i think they look cooler closer together, but that'd cover up the rings =/. (and we can't have that now can we lol)
