Hey guys, I just picked up my 1990 NA 2+2 on Wednesday and I've been driving her around for the past 2 days now. Man can she pull! Anyways I was wondering if anybody knew where to get new weatherstripping for the headlight housing? I've found the weatherstripping and seals for everything BUT that :mad: If anybody could help out with that, it'd be awesome!

That weatherstripping usually comes part of the headlight assy:

Not sure if you'll be able to find it standalone.

Post some pics of your car! And yes Aaron is right I do have a headlight weather stripping. :chuckle:

I will definitely post some pictures once I put the new bumper on! Currently it has a Greddy front bumper but it has a few cracks that aren't worth repairing.

I was wondering if the weather seals that are on there right now may still be good? I'll take a picture of the headlights and put it up tomorrow but if they are salvage able, what holds the weather seal to the headlight housing?

There are little metal clip/clamps that hold it to the headlight assembly.

Hmm, okay. Hopefully I can get it back on those clips and I won't have to buy new ones lol.

For my bumper install I don't have any of the splash guards that the bumper would attach to. I know for sure that I need to buy the splash shield for the bottom of the car but how would the bumper look without the fender linings being there to hold those three little screws?

Here's a picture of her right now! Her names Sheila :D

Nice! The paint looks great! From what I can see it looks like once you get a new bumper it will be very nice!
