Here is how I finally ended up mounting my headlights.  Took a couple different versions but I am real happy with the way these mount now.

Hey thanks Purple, I test fitted the lenses and the lip worked very well.  It holds the lenses nice and flush with the fender, pics coming soon.  I'm working on the headlight mounts today.

Nice Work! Seems to be a good idea!
I met a man with a dollar, we exchanged dollars and we still had a dollar. I met a man with an idea, we exchanged ideas and now we both have two ideas!!!

Made this lip on the back of the fenders for the headlight glass to sit on.  This will allow the headlight to sit flush with the fender.  I'll take some pics of the glass tomorrow after this dries.

Got the latch installed and working properly, now my hood opens and closes nicely.  I used the seal from the trunk of my 2000 Passat and I had to trim just a little bit of the length, otherwise it worked out perfect.

I'm also looking for a good alternative to the hood catch, if anyone knows of one please let me know.  Here is a pic of what the OEM part looks like.
I used the hood safety catch from a Volvo sorry I dont rember the model. Then with steel bar ( 5mm ) bent a ( U ) shape flipped it over then weld onto frame, takes a bit of getting the height right so tack welds are best.

Here is how I mounted the Diablo to NAERC chassis. Just one approach. Could be adopted for any body.  http://www.lambobuilder.com/emtemp/body/

Amazing progress on this car.You have a lot of talent, awesome work so far in every aspect. Would you mind sharing how you designed the support frame for the NAERC chassis to accommodate the Murcielago body?Thank you!

Nice job on everything! I like the idea of leaving the notch for the 640 spoiler operation.  ::thumbup

Thanks Mike, yes I wanted to leave it so it can still function.  Took me a while to come up with a good design but I'm pretty happy with it.
