Hey, I've been searching and searching for a new set of headlights, and can't seem to find any. I am trying to find the "angel eye" look i think is what its called. REALLY wanting to get them because it would look so good on this black car. Also, do they make any kind of euro tail light?? If so, any, and i mean ANY info will help. Thanks again, and I forgot to mention, this is an awesome community with great info!!

only options are to clean your yellowing lenses, buy clear lenses (very pricey 450 for heads and corners) or custom fabrication of some projectors and such.

oh or the glass lenses and theres been some pictures floating around of headlamps used i think in australia that have less reflectors on the lens and what looks to be a projector for the low beam but a company that coudl get me them said that it wasn't a true projector. but for 750 for the pair they're also not cheap

And here's another page I found. It looks like the same method as the firsthttp://vamp.darkravers.net/DIYMakingAngelEyes.cfm

They look best with projectors, IMO...

I bought some euro-spec glass headlights recently for 279 each headlight. They look really nice. A search on glass headlights will direct you to them

You can send me your headlights and I can make them 85% stock, in cleanliness. $20 a headlight, let me know. I will post pics of the headlights covers I worked on.

I can buff the yellow out, thats not a problem, I'm just looking for that projection light look. That really gets to me why they don't make them, they would look awesome on my car. What color would yall paint your brake calipers, i'm thinking silver, cause i don't won't it to stick out TOO much. But red and yellow, no sir, not that. I'm looking at a blue (darkish) because the trunk light has been converted to a blue led light, to light up sound system. But yeah, anyone have black car with silver calipers?
