Delta Twin Beam-The Headlight Delta Never Made

I live for the CABE
Recently picked up a 1950 JC Higgins Color Flow with the (almost always) missing Bat Wing headlight. Can't afford the crazy money these pull on the market, so decided to come up with something on my own.
I got a pair of Delta marine navigation lights dirt cheap (chipped and broken fins which I sanded down to match) on eBay for $6.00. Replaced the red and green lenses with a pair of clear lenses from Bicycle Heaven @ $18 each. Had a couple of LED flashlights that fit the battery compartment perfectly. Quite a bit of trial and error fabbing and this is what I ended up with. A couple of minor items left to take care of, but more or less happy with my efforts. Total cost-under $50
