Default Stock Headlights

Does anyone have a spare set of stock headlights? lol i ruined my old set by being an idiot. i have halos in my car but i want the whistler look instead, so i got out my stock lights spent all day trying to clean the yellow from them and i bought that shadow black chrome from advance and painted the entire inside of it. well as soon as i woke up today to check to see if they were dry, it hit me that the headlights will not work if theyre painted all over...i guess i was only half awake yesterday.

I bought a used oem set off ebay for 40 bucks and did the whistler to em, turned out very good. I am thinking of adding a red halo to the high beam housing, just gotta figure out how.

It would save you the time and headache of doing them yourself but to each their own.

I've been looking for those headlights for over a year now. Just found them. They're great looking headlights, and in my opinion, is really worth the money too. Fitment isn't the best, but there are ways around it.

Thanks for your help!

Sweet K&N Door handle! Talk about sticker placement! How do you even come up with something like that?

actually i took an old kinda sticky k&n sticker and stuck it all over the place till i found that spot. i dont put them in stupid places.

it also prevents fingernails from scratching the paint.
