so that the design doesn't hamper realistic car modeling.  As for front
suspension, I don't have any of those parts.

Which parts are you talking about? If you're talking about the special
suspension parts on 8858/8465 or the ones from 8466.... I don't have either
those parts. The .mpd file in my brickshelf page (see link below) has a little
improvement to the steering system I used (and it hasn't been tested), but the
A-arms and steering arms are exactly the ones I used... so check it.

Pop-up headlights would depend on the body in question. Do you have a web
address for your little car?
Yeah: it's here: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=35574
Tell me what do you think of it

Thanks a lot
