Maybe find a grill in a wreckers and put it in your garage to replace the one you have should you want to revert it in the future.

Just may be that a few years from now they won't be so plentiful (like interior lights for deluxes, door cards, S rims etcetera) and you will have to pay a motza to replace it.

its a pretty strait grill and ive polished it but i have another one that i will use to cut
i was having a look at the front of a starlet gt.. i think that maybe a small set of lights like that would look pretty neat?
or maybe the landing strip lights out of my datsun :D
