I, for one, laughed out loud,thanks. Walbum -- Consider yourself welcomed.
Front skirts may be un-needed, BMW currently uses an external duct they call an Air Curtain™ as a substitute. That Ur-SAAB prototype has skirted front wheels but the wheelwells are huge gaping holes under the car. It's hard to go wrong with what the tuners call 'stance'.
You could always use fuses that are temp-sensitive or thermistors to trigger a warning light on the dashboard.

Edit: I looked at the thread on the Miata Forum about LED lights and I wasn't impressed with the low beam cutoff—at all. I've run Hella H-4 since the 80s and the cut-off is so sharp when the car bounces you can see the line move front-to-back on the road.
I've seen HID lights that have a cut-off as sharp, or sharper, but what really impressive is the uniform lighting with no hot-spots.
What I want to do is run projectors in the old VW bus headlights. I've got the fluted European glass that wants an unfluted bulb. Morimoto Minis with Angel lights. Should be syk-o-delic.
