I remember when oem was the cheaper stuff and now it's the other way around. $600 for a set of oem from year one, $300 for a pair on ebay, I haven't even checked the dealership yet. My only choices are halo's or something similar and I'm not a big fan of the halos. Maybe cause I haven't seen any on a NBM camaro yet. I'm still floored about the price though. I want power for that much money not looks, don't get me wrong, I like looks that add power also. Guess I might have to settle for the Halos if nothing arises. Anybody have pics of a NBM camaro with the Halos?

 

You could go with chrome halos, I have seem them and they look good on NBM. You could go black too, but I like chrome better unless they are on a black Camaro. Somebody should have some pics for you.

 

The aftermarket headlights don't fit as well as stock.

In this case, you get what you pay for.

 

Yeah, I know what you mean on that. I'm not hesitant to pay a big price for something that is worth it, but never expected that much for some OEM's. Guess I'll call the dealership and see what they're wanting for them and go from there. Besides, I have heard of some problems out of the halos, ie improper fitment, melting, cracking, etc. Well I don't call it the MISTRESS for nothing, so I guess I'll spend some change on her lol. Thanks for the input guys and keep it coming. It's still a few more days til payday.

 

Why do you need new lights? Maybe pull a pair from a junkyard and wet sand/buff them out.

 

When I pulled mine out yesterday, (to sand and polish) I noticed the brackets were broken and one of the lenses were cracked. I can deal with a cracked light since I don't drive in the rain, but I can't stand some wobbleing headlights.

 

heres mine with chrome halos i love em

 

I think I've heard you can take the halo part out of those single halo headlights to make it look stock again. If this is true then it would be a cheaper alternative to get stock looking lights without paying OEM prices.

 

and here is a pic of black halos




they dont fit as good as oem, but ehh...

 

i just bought a set of black halos because i got tired of the hazed over stockers...i only spent 156 on them...guess ill find out if they are worth it or not

 

I think the black looks sexy on NBM IMO

 

Ive got the black halos and i think they look alot better then the stockers.. yea there's some gap between the headlight and bumper but its a black car you cant really notice

 

I know of a good salvage yard that can help you out and when they get hazy you can sand them down and polish them. I did this on my 01 SS. They came out looking brand new

 

JB Weld the broken brackets back together if all the pieces are still there.

 

camaro complainers./... price T/A headlamp assemblies!

aftermarket headlights are rarely of sufficient quality... i would go for used OEM

 

wasnt an aftermarket company selling the half whistler OEM style headlight for a lot less? i thought i saw pictures, but cant find it. they looked real good!

 

I bought some and they hazed over after a year.

I'd find some used OEM ones from a board member on here. That's where I got mine. OEM, flawless, off of a car that had 10k miles and sat in the garage. Sunlight is what causes them to get all nasty.

 

Plus I have contacted a non sponsor and they are unsure when they will be available or if they will be available again.

As far as the OEM headlights you get what you pay for. OEM will always be the best fit.

 

Here's a pic of mine, black halos & corners. I took the brackets from my factory headlights and used them on the halos, they fit exactly like OEM.

 

thats a little ridiculous....600 bucks?
