Flight of fancy or madmans dream?

Another new project started, picked this Revell Premiun kit up at a show a couple of years ago for £10, had a sudden rush of blood and started cutting. I am planing on it ending up as a rather different police car. I have grafed a rear window from a 300z as it came as a convertible, created a rear frame for the glass, it has the front valance off a nissan 180, the original front valance is now on the rear, will have to rerout the exhaust outlet, I have reprofiled the rear boot and filled the recess in the centre the side skirts are off the tamiya celica i am building the SAS kit with, the bonnet duct is scratch built and the front lights are to be recessed behind clear panels not unlike the 300z. I have partially built a roll cage and to this I plan to mount the light bar from an old ford police car I had in my spares box. Also toying with the idea of adding the bull bar from the same kit. This is a pure 'what if' but what do you think? have I lost it?? too many glue fumes possibly!!

Neil,
Why not go the whole hog and add Knight rider strobing light as well!
I know you know how to use fibre optics (predator model).

Looks good so far can't wait to see it finished.
