Can This Be Done..? Has Anybody Thought About doing this..? Can it be done..?
Ok.. As Much as i try to get my headlight lense cleaned out
with the whole polishing,and sanding thing It will never go back
as clear as a brand new one. I really want the Stock original headlights But Those WILL COST Me some serious $$$$$$
Now.. The closer one's to The Stock look.. Would be The Halo's Chrome ones from Ebay.
My question would be.. Can we do the whole "oven baking thing" with a New pair
of halos and SWAPP..!! The Brand New CLEAR Lense Into the Original headlight..?? Instead of paying 200+ VS 130$ And still be able to sell the halos as a USED item condition with a clean lense..? And get some $$ back?

(Black99TransAm) 100 is a good price for both but I still got shipping rates for 2 trips.. So I think I rather do the lense swapp.. I will only be payN about 130 shipped. And.... I can still sell my halos with a decent lense.. So that puts me at least about half price of that.. THANX thou..
And to (bobbyd) thanx for that info.. I think that would be the cheapest,easiest way. To have brand new lense keeping the stock headlights. THANX..

Too bad ZMS motorsports got banned.. They offered a service where you sent your lenses in and you received some in return that had the nipples removed and were completely sanded smooth and clear for $50. I think 6LE might be doing this now too I'm not sure.
