Default 98-02 Camaro headlights, which fit good, which do not?

Hey guys, I have a very good girl-friend who's headlight's have become very foggy, imagine that right? I thought I'd read a while back that some of the aftermarket halo and diamond, euro type headlights didn't fit very well and left gaps around the bumper area. I figured that you guys would know so please let me know what you have, where you got it, how it fits and all of that stuff, and if you have pics that would be nice too.

Thanks,
James

98 z28 IMO the stock headlights look the best. Granted they are gonna cost more but to me it looks cleaner. I got them directly from GM and they were a little under 400.

Yeah, I agree.I was a GM tech for 3years and my parts guys still give me that stuff @10% over cost. They are around $250 a side which really isn't affordable for her right now. Thanks though, and I do agree

I'm afraid the only "affordable" option would be some aftermarket jobbies. The most "affordable" option is to take them off, wet sand, and polish like hell! You can require bikini clad company in exchange/during the hours of polishing.

Yeah, I doubt my wife would approve the bikini clad company, I guess aftermarket jobs it is.

just wet sand them down with 400 and 600 paper and get your local body shop to clean and prep them and spray them with automotive clearcoat works great, they look good as new! or if you dont prefer to sand on them just get your body shop to hook you up on all of it ....
