FROM MY POSTING ON ANOTHER WEBSITE, MY UNDERSTANDING IS THE BULLHORN REFERS TO THE BRACE BETWEEN THE HIPS .
I GUESS ITS SHAPE IS SIMILAR TO A SET OF BULLHORNS. I AM TRYING TO DETERMINE WHEN IT WAS FIRST USED IN THE TC AS MANY
LATER CARS OTHER THAN MINE HAS THEM INSTALLED. THANKS, CHEERS, STU

the color, as i understand it, was a custom mix by a couple owners back. so sorry, not much help
with that. i'm glad you like it though.
cheers
