Great job Ari! That stinks that you can't print them. I would have ordered 3 at least! Okay so if Elio Motors is reading this forum, here's my request. Ari did a great job on his 3D model and while we understand the legalize of the whole thing, I would still love to have a couple of models to give my grandsons for Chanukah or birthdays. So if you have someone working on it, how soon will a model be available? Will it be a hot wheels style or like Ari's, a plastic 3D rendition?

lol, such participation, I like! ... You know, looking at the emergency lights out there for sale online, they look bad sometimes and are horribly inefficient in the wind. So I tried my hand at something that would custom fit the elio and fix both those problems. I should use it to create a meter-maid, or fire chief , or command leader car, response team etc, all yellow for utility uses and so on.
Does this lightbar look OK?

This is just my guess, given where the rear tire is, if you put in a hitch receiver for a small motorcycle trailer it would look like this. I'm assuming in this drawing 1" is about right for that lite of a receiver. It's also attached to the skirt. (I presume two more bolts to remove to get to the rear suspension), and it would be bolted or welded into the vehicle chassis with some structure.
